Key Features
Bergara Barrel Precision
The B-14 Ridge is equipped with a Bergara Barrel, renowned for its accuracy potential. This cold hammer-forged barrel is engineered to maintain stringent tolerances, contributing to predictable shot placement crucial for hunting applications. The barrel features a durable Graphite Black Cerakote finish, providing advanced corrosion resistance and a non-reflective surface.
B-14 Action System
At the core of the Ridge is Bergara’s smooth B-14 Action. This two-lug system incorporates a sliding plate extractor and a coned bolt nose and breech, optimizing cartridge feeding and ensuring reliable extraction under varying conditions. The action is designed for consistent cycling and repeatable lockup.
Ergonomic Stock Design
The rifle features a molded synthetic stock, constructed from glass fiber reinforced polymer. This material composition provides structural rigidity and environmental stability, maintaining a consistent shooting platform. The Gray Speckled Black finish offers a practical, non-slip texture and a subdued aesthetic suitable for field use. The American-style fixed stock geometry is optimized for shooter comfort and control.
Optimized Trigger System
A Bergara curved trigger is factory installed, calibrated to provide a crisp, clean break. Set at approximately three pounds from the factory, this trigger system is engineered to mitigate pull variations, enabling precise shot execution.
Integrated Mounting Capability
The steel receiver is factory drilled and tapped to accept Remington 700 style rings and bases, facilitating the direct and secure integration of various optical sighting systems without requiring custom modification.
