Well, for that kind of money and only a 1 MOA or less guarantee with match grade factory ammo is a waste. A 700.00 tikka will do that and it's guaranteed as well. I have a Bergara in 308. It's got a great stock but my Tikka will shoot slightly better than 1/2 MOA and the best I could get with my Bergara was much closer to 1 MOA.
I wouldn't do it.

Not that exact model but I do have a Pro. It shoots well under 1 MOA and I checked this with Federal Premium box ammo and a Caldwell plastic base. At 100 yards I thought I hit the target once out of 3 shots and was confused, until the range went cold and I walked down to check the target in person. All 3 shots hit and made a pattern which I can only describe as the smallest 3 leaf clover ever.
Yes, it is a 700 pattern but be careful as Bergara generally taps the upper for 8x40 screws instead of 6x42 which is/had been standard for Remmy 700 uppers. The base I used was a Seekins Precision 20 MOA model.
