Excellent advice. It brings to mind an old adage: "Beware of the man with only one rifle - He probably knows how to use it."

Optima/Wolf/Scout barrels are made at the Bergara plant but not marked as a true Bergara as they skip the multi honing process. I thought we talked about this in a 12 page post before?

Sorry MD, must have been while I was away from the forum through the summer.....see what I get! But DANG! I wanted an Optima with a Bergara Barrel, that would be sweet and fit a little better than the Accura even though Im used to it now. It's probably to keep the cost down and offer a offordable Mler.

The Optimas shoot just as sweet as the CVAs wearing the true Bergaras.

They may not be stamped bergerra but I ran some cotton balls through my new wolf before shooting per Cayugads advice and not a fiber could be seen sticking to the rifleing in the barrel. Looked nice and smooth. Still gave it a few strokes of bore paste for good measure. Looked like a mirror inside.
