Mountain hunting demands rifles that balance featherlight carry weight with absolute accuracy. A rifle that can be packed into alpine terrain, shot from improvised positions and still deliver precise, repeatable hits is a force multiplier for serious backcountry hunters.

BERGARA B-14 SQUARED CREST

Design and construction

The BERGARA B-14 SQUARED CREST is built around a Monocoque “Structural Skin” carbon fiber stock that borrows advanced manufacturing techniques from automotive and aerospace industries. This structural-skin approach, reinforced by a carbon spine, produces exceptional rigidity while keeping the rifle extremely lightweight for downhill hikes and long glassing sessions. Cerakote Sniper Gray finish resists corrosion and blends with high-alpine palettes.

Barrel, muzzle device, and accuracy

Bergara’s signature precision barrel is fitted to this model, delivering sub-MOA performance out of the box — a crucial attribute when shots are limited and wind holds are minimal. The rifle pairs that barrel with the Omni Muzzle Brake to manage recoil and muzzle rise, allowing faster follow-up and steadier holds from field rests or improvised supports. The 20-inch barrel length is a practical compromise: it retains velocity for the .22-250 Remington chambering while improving handling in dense terrain.
