Overview
The Bergara B14R Bolt Action Rifle is engineered as a dedicated full-size precision trainer, developed to provide a highly accurate rimfire platform for both foundational skill development and competitive preparation. This rifle addresses the demand from experienced firearm enthusiasts and competitive shooters for a .22LR system that mirrors the ergonomics and modularity of a centerfire precision rifle, specifically integrating within the Remington 700 footprint. Its design facilitates cost-effective training, allowing shooters to maintain proficiency and develop advanced techniques without the operational expenses associated with larger calibers or the limitations of available range facilities.
Key Features
REM700 Platform Integration
The B14R is dimensionally consistent with the REM700 platform, enabling seamless integration with a wide array of aftermarket stocks, bases, and triggers. This design choice allows shooters to configure their rimfire trainer to precisely replicate the feel and interface of their centerfire rifle, optimizing muscle memory and skill transference. This compatibility ensures a robust customization pathway using existing market components.
Precision Engineering
Developed over an extensive period, the B14R achieves exceptional accuracy, making it suitable for competitive environments such as NRL22 and PRS .22 matches. The design prioritizes consistent shot placement, delivering performance that meets the stringent requirements of precision rimfire competition. The robust steel construction of the barrel and receiver contributes to its inherent stability and long-term reliability.
Magazine System
This rifle incorporates a single-stack magazine system engineered to match the external dimensions of a standard short action AICS magazine. This feature is critical for maintaining consistency in magazine handling and presentation during training, further solidifying the rifle’s role as a true centerfire clone trainer. The 10-round capacity supports extended practice sessions.
Left-Hand Configuration
This specific B14R variant is configured for left-handed shooters, ensuring proper ergonomics and operational efficiency for southpaw individuals. This dedication to specific user needs prevents compromised shooting mechanics, allowing left-handed operators to train with an optimized interface.
