Description
The 25 Creedmoor has been generating a lot of buzz for good reason. It pushes heavy-for-caliber .257 bullets with a flat trajectory and mild recoil, splitting the difference between the 6mm and 6.5 Creedmoor in a way that makes a ton of sense for deer, antelope, and open-country hunting. Bergara chambering it in the B-14 Sierra Wilderness gives you one of the first production rifles built to take real advantage of the cartridge, and it comes backed by Bergara's sub-MOA accuracy guarantee.
What Sets the Sierra Wilderness Apart
The Sierra slots into the Wilderness lineup as the sporter rifle for folks who want more adjustability than a fixed stock offers. The adjustable comb lets you set your cheek height to line up naturally behind your scope, and the included quarter-inch length-of-pull spacers dial in the fit from there. The grip is slightly more vertical than a classic sporter, which feels natural whether you are shooting off a pack or standing offhand. A SoftTouch finish gives the synthetic stock a grippy, weatherproof feel in cold or wet hands.
Bergara Barrel and B-14 Action in 25 CR
Up front you get a 20 inch fluted No. 5 taper 4140 chrome-moly barrel, threaded 5/8-24 and wearing Bergara's Omni muzzle brake from the factory. The brake takes the already gentle 25 Creedmoor recoil down to nearly nothing, and the threading means a suppressor swaps on easily. The whole works, barrel, action, and fluted bolt, is coated in Sniper Grey Cerakote for serious corrosion resistance in nasty weather. The B-14 action runs smooth thanks to its two-lug design, sliding plate extractor, and coned bolt nose, feeding rounds without a hitch even when you are cycling fast on a follow-up shot.
The hinged floorplate holds four rounds, and the M5 bottom metal cutout in the stock means you can convert to AICS-style detachable magazines down the road if you want more capacity for range days. At roughly seven pounds bare, it carries well in the backcountry without beating you up at the bench.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 25 Creedmoor good for?
The 25 Creedmoor is built to launch high-BC .257 caliber bullets at impressive velocities with mild recoil, making it a great pick for deer, antelope, and predators at extended ranges. It fits neatly between the 6mm and 6.5 Creedmoor, giving you more bullet weight than the 6mm with a flatter ride than most classic quarter-bore loads. Factory ammo availability is growing quickly as the cartridge gains steam.
Can the Bergara Sierra Wilderness accept detachable magazines?
Yes, with a swap. It ships with a traditional hinged floorplate holding four rounds, but the stock features an M5 bottom metal cutout, so you can install aftermarket M5 bottom metal and run AICS-pattern detachable magazines. That gives you the clean lines of a floorplate for hunting with the option of higher capacity mags for range work.
Is the B-14 Sierra Wilderness suppressor ready?
It is. The 20 inch fluted barrel is threaded 5/8-24, which is the most common thread pitch for cans in this caliber range. Just remove the factory Omni muzzle brake and thread on your suppressor, and the shorter 20 inch barrel keeps overall length manageable with a can attached.
How adjustable is the stock on the Sierra Wilderness?
The Sierra's headline feature is its adjustable comb, which lets you raise or lower cheek height for proper eye alignment behind your scope. Bergara also includes quarter-inch spacers so you can fine-tune length of pull to fit your build and how many layers you hunt in. It is a level of fit customization you usually will not find on a sporter-style hunting rifle.
