Strikes me as these days it is tougher to get a gun that won't shoot MOA or better, just comes down to what features you like. For one gun I wanted, a TAC A1 checked all the boxes, had nothing in the way of options to add to it, other than putting the vertical grip on it, for the other one, the T3x was adequate. The stock on the T3x felt cheap, but after having the butt off and drilling for swivel sockets, I wouldn't necessarily call it a cheap stock, but, maybe it is an upgrade stock from the std T3X, as it is on a western special edition, no verification on that thought, it is still what they call a superlite version gun.. Certainly like the metal mag that the TAC uses better, CTR has same mag, and yet, no issues so far with the std mags either. I don't need to change triggers, they both shoot 5/8-3/4MOA out of the box with "match grade" factory ammo, first handloads matched that no sweat, velocities are what they shud be, so, I don't have a "slow Tikka bbl" on either one.
Not sure what spooked me off Bergara altogether, that was 3 yrs ago now, barrels seem mostly good to go, probably would put a triggertech in one, if it didn't already have it, seems some models do now? B14HMR was too heavy for some apps, too light for others maybe, the Howa's needed a trigger, wasn't impressed with stock choices vs price on either of them at the time. I remember being pretty stoked on a CTR, then spotting the TAC, and even though it was another 1000.00 at the time, had the features I would have added to a T3x varmint or a CTR, and was heavy enough as a range gun, to be more practical, in my mind. And then when it came around to wanting a hunting version, the 24" bbl and being fluted, and the olive stock, sold me on the western edition version of the T3X, wasn't disappointed with it either. Only change I am contemplating to the T3x, is maybe putting the 2 stage trigger in it, I do like that trigger, also changed the grip out to the more vertical one on it.
Bergara premier series kinda turned my crank, but, they wanted too much money for it, as I remember.
