Bergara B-14 Timber: High-Accuracy .300 Win Mag Rifle

For hunters and precision shooters who demand reliability, smooth operation, and field-ready accuracy, the right bolt-action rifle can make all the difference. Whether you’re glassing a ridge at first light or closing the distance on a long-range stalk, you want a platform that balances repeatable accuracy with rugged, practical features built to perform under real conditions.

BERGARA B-14 steps into that role as a purpose-built big-game rifle chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum, configured with a 3+1 hinged floor plate magazine and a 24″ barrel finished in Graphite Black Cerakote. The rifle’s 4140 CrMo steel barrel and Graphite Black Cerakote steel receiver are drilled and tapped for optics, and the Monte Carlo walnut stock features a raised comb, cheek piece and bedded integral pillars to stabilize the action and help deliver consistent groups shot after shot. Priced at $1,027.99, this model brings premium fit and finish into a practical price range. Shop this product

Build Quality and Materials

The B-14’s barrel construction uses 4140 chromium-moly steel, a proven alloy in hunting rifles that balances strength, wear resistance and manufacturability. The Black Cerakote finish on both the barrel and receiver adds a corrosion-resistant, matte surface that reduces glare and improves durability in wet or dusty environments. Because the receiver is drilled and tapped from the factory, mounting a scope is straightforward and avoids third-party gunsmithing for many common bases and rings.

Monte Carlo Walnut Stock Details

The walnut Monte Carlo stock on this Timber version includes a raised comb and cheek piece to help align the eye with higher-magnification optics, especially important when running longer-eye-relief hunting scopes. Bedded integral pillars improve action-to-stock contact and help reduce movement under recoil, contributing to shot-to-shot consistency. The multiple-coat oil finish on the stock preserves the wood while maintaining an attractive, traditional hunting aesthetic.

Action, Feeding, and Trigger

The B-14 Action is purpose-built for smoothness and reliability. It’s a two-lug bolt system with a Sako-style extractor and a coned bolt nose and breech to ensure smooth chambering and extraction of cartridges. That combination minimizes drag during bolt manipulation, a welcome trait when quick follow-up shots or fast cycling in cold gloves are required. The Bergara curved trigger offers a crisp, clean pull that can be tuned at the armorer’s shop for a pull weight that matches your shooting style.

Magazine and Handling

This .300 Win Mag model utilizes a 3+1 hinged floor plate magazine — a practical choice for hunting where rapid unloading or topping off is common. The hinged floor plate simplifies unloading in camp without cycling every round. The 24″ barrel balances ballistic performance with manageable overall length for field carrying, stalking and vehicle storage.

Ballistics, Recoil, and Hunting Applications

.300 Winchester Magnum remains one of the most capable factory magnum calibers for large-bodied game. With the 24″ barrel length offered here, you get strong muzzle velocity that translates to superior long-range energy and flatter trajectories compared to many standard hunting cartridges. That makes the rifle ideal for heavy-bodied species at extended yardages, where terminal performance and retained energy matter. Expect noticeable recoil compared with smaller calibers; pairing the rifle with quality recoil pads, a good sling, and proper shooting technique will make field use comfortable and repeatable.

Mounting Optics and Compatibility

Because the rifle is drilled and tapped and the 24″ barrel accepts Remington 700 style rings and bases, scope mounting is straightforward. That compatibility opens up a wide selection of bases and rings and simplifies upgrades or easily replicable setups in the field. Choose optics that match expected engagement ranges: a 3–12x or 4–16x hunting scope is a common starting point for .300 Win Mag hunting scenarios.
