The Bergara B-14 Ridge rifle provides a robust platform for serious big-game hunting, integrating Bergara’s established barrel accuracy with a durable, utility-focused design. This rifle is engineered for consistent performance in demanding field conditions, leveraging a precise barrel system and a reliable action to deliver repeatable shot placement.
Key Features
Precision Barrel System
The B-14 Ridge incorporates a Bergara barrel, meticulously crafted to ensure inherent accuracy. This commitment to barrel quality is fundamental to the rifle’s performance capability, facilitating consistent projectile velocities and trajectory for long-range engagements typical in big-game hunting scenarios.
B-14 Action Reliability
At the core of the Ridge rifle is the Bergara B-14 Action, a two-lug system designed for reliable cycling. It features a sliding plate extractor and a coned bolt nose and breech. This configuration optimizes cartridge feeding from the magazine and ensures consistent, positive extraction of spent casings, thereby mitigating potential stoppages during critical moments in the field.
Ergonomic Stock Design
The rifle is equipped with a molded American-style synthetic stock, constructed from glass fiber reinforced polymer. This material selection provides a balance of structural rigidity and weight reduction. A SoftTouch finish is applied to the stock, enhancing grip and handling security across varying environmental conditions, contributing to shooter comfort and control.
Trigger Performance
A Bergara curved trigger is factory-integrated, calibrated to deliver a crisp, clean pull. This design minimizes user-induced movement and promotes precise shot execution. The trigger arrives preset to an approximate pull weight of three pounds, providing a consistent interface for the operator.
Integrated Magazine System
The B-14 Ridge features a hinged floor plate, allowing for convenient and secure access to the magazine well for loading and unloading operations. This design choice prioritizes reliable cartridge retention and simplifies field maintenance.
