The Bergara B-14 Squared Crest is engineered for the rigorous demands of mountain hunting and backcountry expeditions. This advanced rifle boasts a 100% carbon fiber stock, built using CF-RTM technology, a method often seen in high-end automotive and aerospace applications. This process involves meticulously assembling dry carbon fibers by hand and injecting them with resin, forming a monocoque carbon fiber stock that is both exceptionally rigid and durable. The stock’s carbon spine further enhances its strength, establishing a new benchmark for carbon fiber stocks in the hunting rifle industry. Performance-wise, the B-14 Squared Crest features Bergara’s well-known precision barrel made from 4140 CrMo steel, finished with a Sniper Grey Cerakote®. The fluted barrel design not only decreases weight but also plays a crucial role in achieving the rifle’s sub-MOA accuracy, a signature characteristic of Bergara barrels. Additional features include a Bergara Omni Muzzle Brake and a threaded muzzle. The rifle’s action is designed for smooth operation, featuring a two-bolt system with a sliding extractor and a tapered bolt nose for seamless cartridge handling. The B-14 Squared Crest is equipped with a detachable 5-round AICS compatible magazine, and the 7 PRC variant includes a CIP Accurate-Mag Magazine. Overall, it is a highly versatile option for dedicated hunters.
