Best option between Bergara, DD Delta 5 and Tikka T3X UPR

Quarter minute magnums put it best

Because it's awkward to stick it out of the truck door window

Eh…it’ll buff out. I have a 20lb PRS rifle as my primary deer / hog slayer. Just got to get the bench and squat numbers up and they get easy to carry (not saying you do, just for the general hunter). I carry it to my stand which is about a mile in like a jaded M60 gunner in Vietnam. lol

Same here, but on a western hunt we’d be hurtin

Well the DD is pretty freaking heavy for a hunting rifle.

What Bergara are you looking at? Just saying "Bergara" is being very vague, with a wide selection with accompanying price range.

I'd recommend buying a rifle for each separate task. You're losing something in each spectrum by trying to get a one-size-fits-all.

Additionally, the power range of my long rage scopes is hugely different from my hunting rifles.

I bought the B14 ridge for hunting and LR…I wish it had a removable magazine….decent compromise…I do like the stock of the HMR better for LR

You can get the stock milled out for some quality DBM. I like Hawkins and badger.

I assumed the B14 HMR. Seems to be their most popular.

I didn't want to assume, especially since that would be comparing a $970 Bergara to a $1700 and up DD.

That's correct. B1A HMR, TIKKA UPR, AND DD DELTA 5. THOSE ARE THE OPTIONS
