The renegade is good at (for me)

  • looking sort of like an AR

  • going boom at the range

  • 20rd mags

I agree the bolt catch is stiff. You can just pull the charging handle back though. I've never cut myself on it. I also don't like disassembly for cleaning.

It does what I want it to 🤷

That being said, the Bergara feels higher quality in every way.

Ya I get u can use the bolt but it has a bolt release it should work I’ve herd a quality aftermarket one fixes it you can see the play in the one it comes with also the trigger is the worst mil spec trigger going I changed mine to a trigger tec after one shooting trip for 1500$ it should be better imo

What triggertech would you recommend? I didn't think it was too bad til I dry fired the Bergara for the first time to compare.

Good to know on the aftermarket bolt releases. I don't mind giving it a good push, but I never had the real thing to compare to!

Agreed it should be better for the money. I picked it up before the Makasi and Carmel were announced and only just finished adding the stock and grip.

The duty trigger is pretty good for the price I had a two stage flat face in mine. I had to push my bolt release so hard it was stupid  You could polish your stock trigger it will clean up a bit but god dam it was bad
