For big-game hunters who demand accuracy, smooth operation, and a platform that won’t break the bank, a well-engineered bolt-action rifle is an essential tool. A rifle that balances barrel quality, action design, and an ergonomic stock will deliver consistent hits when it counts most afield.

Bergara Rifles B-14 Ridge is built to deliver Bergara barrel accuracy in an affordable hunting package. The Ridge features a molded synthetic stock made of glass fiber reinforced polymer, pairing durability and light weight for mountain days or long glassing sessions. The rifle’s Bergara barrel and super-smooth B-14 Action — a two-lug system with a sliding plate extractor, coned bolt nose, and coned breech — ensure reliable feeding and extraction round after round. It also ships with a Bergara curved trigger set at about three pounds for a crisp, clean pull. The model is chambered in 7mm-08 Remington, comes with the option of a hinged floor plate, and is factory drilled and tapped for Remington 700 style rings and bases.

Design & Build Quality

The Bergara Rifles B-14 Ridge’s glass fiber reinforced polymer stock resists weather and impact better than traditional wood, while the Bergara barrel delivers tight groups from a production hunting package. The two-lug B-14 Action with sliding plate extractor reduces drag on the bolt throw and the coned bolt nose and breech improve cartridge alignment for smoother, more reliable feeding — features that matter on long stalks where every second counts.

Trigger and Controls

The Bergara curved trigger comes pre-set at roughly three pounds, offering a balance between safety and precision. For hunters who want a predictable break without aftermarket tuning, this setup is effective right out of the box.
