Description
Bergara made its name building barrels for some of the biggest names in the industry before they ever put their own rifles on shelves, and the B-14 Hunter is where that barrel-first mindset really pays off. This 6.5 Creedmoor version wears a 22 inch 4140 chrome moly barrel with a 1:8 twist, the right recipe for stabilizing the long, high-BC bullets that made this cartridge famous. Bergara backs it with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee, which is not something you see every day in a working hunting rifle at this level. The barrel and receiver are finished in Graphite Black Cerakote, so rain, snow, and sweaty pack straps are not going to give it much trouble.
The B-14 Action Keeps Things Running Smooth
The heart of the rifle is Bergara's two-lug B-14 action with a coned bolt nose and Sako-style extractor, and it cycles the way a bolt gun should. Feeding is slick, extraction is positive, and follow-up shots come fast when a buck decides to keep moving. Bergara's curved trigger breaks clean at around three pounds, and the whole thing sits on a Remington 700 footprint, so the receiver is drilled and tapped for the mountain of 700-pattern rings and bases already out there. Rounds ride in a 4-round internal box magazine with a hinged floorplate, which means nothing to lose in the field.
A Hunter Stock Built for Real Weather
The glass fiber reinforced polymer stock is molded with steel bedding pillars locked in place during production, giving the barreled action a solid, consistent foundation shot after shot. The SoftTouch coating over the green base with tan and black flecks has a slightly tacky feel that stays put in cold, wet hands. At roughly 7 pounds and 41.5 inches overall, the B-14 Hunter carries easily on long days without beating you up at the bench. It is a lot of rifle for the money, and 6.5 Creedmoor's mild recoil makes it easy to shoot well.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Bergara B-14 Hunter come with a scope or sights?
No, this rifle ships without sights or optics. The receiver is drilled and tapped to accept Remington 700-style rings and bases, so mounting options are just about endless. Pair it with a quality 3-9x or 4-12x hunting scope and you will be set for most big game situations.
How accurate is the B-14 Hunter in 6.5 Creedmoor?
Bergara backs the B-14 line with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee using quality factory match ammo, and the company built its reputation making barrels for other major manufacturers. The 1:8 twist on this 22 inch barrel is well suited to the heavier 140 grain class bullets most folks run in 6.5 Creedmoor. Real-world reports on these rifles consistently show them shooting better than most hunters can hold in field conditions.
Does the B-14 Hunter use a detachable magazine?
This 6.5 Creedmoor model feeds from an internal box magazine with a hinged floorplate rather than a detachable box. That keeps the bottom of the rifle slim for carrying and means there is no magazine to drop in the snow or leave on the tailgate. The floorplate makes unloading quick and easy at the end of the day.
Is the B-14 Hunter a good choice for deer and elk?
It is a great fit for deer, antelope, and hogs, and plenty of hunters take elk with 6.5 Creedmoor using well-constructed bullets at reasonable ranges. At around 7 pounds bare, it carries comfortably on long hikes, and the weather-resistant Cerakote metalwork and grippy SoftTouch stock are built for rough conditions. The mild recoil of the Creedmoor also makes it easy to practice with, which matters more than anything come season.
