Description
Bergara built the Wilderness HMR for people who want one rifle that can pull double duty, and the name spells it out: Hunting and Match Rifle. This .300 Win Mag version wears a 26 inch No. 6 contour Bergara barrel, and that extra length matters with a big case like this. You are burning a lot of powder, and the longer tube lets you squeeze the full velocity potential out of heavy .30 caliber bullets, which pays off downrange in flatter trajectory and retained energy on elk, moose, and long shots across open country. Like every B-14, it carries Bergara's sub-1.0 MOA guarantee at 100 yards with factory match ammo.
Why the Wilderness HMR Handles Magnum Recoil So Well
.300 Win Mag has a reputation for kicking, and Bergara addressed it head on. The threaded 5/8-24 muzzle wears an omnidirectional, multi-ported Omni brake that cuts felt recoil by up to 35 percent, and the stock's thick recoil pad and adjustable fit help you stay behind the rifle instead of bracing against it. The cheekpiece adjusts vertically to line your eye up with larger scopes, and length of pull spacers let you tailor the fit for heavy winter layers or a t-shirt at the range.
Built on Bergara's Proven B-14 Action and Mini-Chassis
Under the hand-painted woodland camo stock sits a molded-in mini-chassis that gives the action a rigid, repeatable bedding surface, so your zero stays put even after pulling the barreled action for cleaning. The two-lug B-14 action runs smooth with its coned bolt nose and sliding plate extractor, feeding from a 5 round AICS-style detachable magazine. A Bergara Performance Trigger breaks clean, and the receiver is drilled and tapped for Remington 700 pattern bases, so scope mounting options are everywhere. Sniper Grey Cerakote on the barreled action shrugs off rain, snow, and rough weather, and QD flush cups plus sling studs make it easy to carry. At around 9.9 pounds bare, it has enough heft to settle down for precise shots without being a boat anchor on the mountain.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Bergara B-14 Wilderness HMR accurate enough for long range shooting?
Yes. Bergara guarantees sub-1.0 MOA groups at 100 yards with factory match-grade ammunition, and the free-floated 26 inch barrel paired with the mini-chassis bedding system is a big part of why. Plenty of owners run these rifles well past 500 yards on both game and steel.
Does the Wilderness HMR come with a muzzle brake?
It does. Unlike the standard B-14 HMR, the Wilderness version ships with Bergara's Omni muzzle brake already installed on the 5/8-24 threaded muzzle. The brake is omnidirectional and multi-ported, cutting felt recoil by up to 35 percent, which makes a real difference with .300 Win Mag. You can remove it and run a suppressor or other muzzle device if you prefer.
What scope mounts fit the B-14 Wilderness HMR in .300 Win Mag?
The receiver is drilled and tapped for Remington 700 pattern bases and rings, so you have a huge range of mounting options. Since this is a long action chambering, make sure you pick up long action 700 pattern bases or a one-piece rail. No sights are included, so plan on adding an optic.
Is the stock adjustable to fit different shooters?
Yes, and that is one of the HMR's strong points. The cheekpiece adjusts vertically so you can get proper eye alignment behind a scope, and included spacers let you change the length of pull to fit your build and clothing. There are also QD flush cups and sling studs for carrying it in the field or mounting a bipod.
