Bergara B-14 Series HMR Rifle, Bolt Action Rifle, 26″ Barrel, Cerakote Finish, Black

Product Description

The Bergara B-14 HMR in 300 PRC is the rifle for shooters who refuse to choose between match-grade accuracy and field practicality. This is a PRS Production class competitor that hunts, a precision platform that handles like a traditional bolt gun, and a sub-MOA rifle that comes ready to shoot without gunsmith work. The 300 PRC chambering delivers magnum velocity in a modern, efficient package—ideal for long-range hunting and precision rifle competition where wind deflection matters.

Specifications

What Makes the B-14 HMR Different

• Integrated Aluminum Mini-Chassis Stock. The same bedding technology found in dedicated competition chassis systems is molded invisibly into your stock. This eliminates the choice between a hunting feel and precision accuracy—you get both. No separate chassis to buy, no added bulk.
• Adjustable Cheekpiece and Length-of-Pull Spacers. Dial in your fit without aftermarket parts or gunsmith work. The cheekpiece requires no tools, and spacers adjust in seconds. This matters for prone, barricade, and field positions where your natural point of aim shifts.
• Remington 700 Footprint with Upgrades. The B-14 action accepts every aftermarket stock, chassis, trigger, and scope mount designed for the 700—the largest bolt-action ecosystem on Earth. Bergara improves the design with a stronger bolt stop, coned bolt nose for smoother feeding, and an oversized threaded bolt knob standard. You own the most modular precision rifle ever built.
• No. 6 Barrel Taper for Supported Precision Fire. Heavier than standard sporter profiles, this profile was engineered for bipod and bag work. It resists deflection under pressure and rewards clean technique—exactly what PRS Production shooters demand. The 26" length in 300 PRC gives you velocity and sight radius without excessive weight.

Bergara’s Barrel Story

Bergara has been manufacturing precision barrels from a town in Spain’s Basque region for generations, earning a global reputation for consistency that the world’s top firearms makers rely on. Every Bergara barrel undergoes five critical steps: precise straightening to begin with near-zero runout, deep-hole drilling under flood coolant, three-spindle diamond honing to a mirror finish, button rifling with carbide buttons held to less than .0002″ groove diameter deviation, and high-temperature stress relieving to lock in dimensional stability. This process produces barrels that rival hand-lapped customs at production prices. The B-14 HMR’s Krieger No. 6 profile amplifies that quality—it’s a working barrel designed for shooters who shoot, not collectors who display.

300 PRC: The Modern Magnum

The 300 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) was purpose-built for long-range precision. It delivers magnum velocities with heavy, high-BC bullets while maintaining magazine-length dimensions in standard long-action platforms. In a 26″ barrel, you’re looking at consistent 3,200+ fps with quality ammunition—enough velocity to maintain transonic flight past 1,500 yards, and enough energy to handle medium to large game decisively. The cartridge is easy on brass and barrels compared to its magnum cousins, and component availability is solid. If you’re building a rifle for both precision competition and long-range hunting, 300 PRC is not a compromise—it’s the smart choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 300 PRC overkill for hunting deer, and underkill for elk?

Not at all. The 300 PRC is a surgical cartridge. With a 212-grain Hornady ELD-X at 3,200 fps, it delivers 2,400+ ft-lbs of energy at 300 yards—more than adequate for deer, and perfectly suitable for elk with proper shot placement. It excels in wind and at distance, which matters more than overkill energy for ethical, clean kills. It’s the cartridge of choice for long-range hunters who shoot precisely.

Can I use my existing AICS magazines in the HMR?

Yes. The B-14 HMR accepts all AICS-pattern detachable magazines, including MDT, Magpul, and standard AICS. The 300 PRC version ships with a 3-round capacity magazine, but you can swap any compatible magazine. Verify your magazine’s 300 PRC compatibility with the manufacturer before purchase, as some older AICS mags may require fitting.

What’s included with the rifle, and what do I need to buy separately?

The rifle ships with the 5/8×24 thread protector installed. You’ll need a scope, mount, and ammunition to shoot. We recommend a quality 4-16x or 5-25x optic for the HMR’s intended use range. A bipod or bag kit is not necessary but highly recommended if you plan to compete in PRS matches or practice precision shooting. The integrated mini-chassis stock is bedded and ready—no additional work required.

Is the Bergara Performance Trigger adjustable without gunsmith help?

Yes. The trigger adjusts from 2 to 4 lbs with a simple Allen key—no special tools, no disassembly required. Bergara ships it factory-set around 3 to 3.5 lbs, which most shooters find crisp and predictable. If you want a lighter let-off for competition or a heavier pull for hunting, you adjust it yourself in under one minute.

What’s the difference between the HMR and Bergara’s other B-14 models?

The HMR (Hunting Match Rifle) is the bridge between pure competition and field hunting. It features the integrated mini-chassis bedding, adjustable ergonomics, and flat forend of a competition platform, but in a stock that looks and handles like a traditional hunting rifle. Other B-14 models (BMP, Premier, etc.) are optimized for hunting, tactical, or pure bench-rest applications. The HMR is the jack-of-all-trades—PRS Production eligible, hunt-capable, and accurate enough for any mission.
