Bergara B-14 Series Hunter Rifle, Bolt Action Rifle, 22″ Barrel, Cerakote Finish, Black

Product Description

The Bergara B-14 Hunter in .22-250 Remington is built for hunters who refuse to compromise between accuracy and packability. At under 7.3 lbs, this is the lightest centerfire rifle in the B-14 lineup—a genuine advantage on long walk-in hunts where every ounce matters. The No. 4 taper barrel delivers sub-MOA accuracy from the box while keeping the rifle’s profile classically sporter and field-ready. If you want a rifle that shoots like a custom build but won’t break the bank or your back, the B-14 Hunter is the answer.

Specifications

What Makes the B-14 Hunter Different

• Lightweight design without compromise. At under 7.3 lbs, the B-14 Hunter is the lightest centerfire rifle in Bergara’s lineup. The No. 4 taper barrel shaves weight while maintaining full accuracy at hunting distances—you won’t sacrifice groups for packability.
• Sub-MOA accuracy guarantee on a hunting budget. Every rifle leaves the factory backed by Bergara’s promise of sub-MOA groups with quality ammunition. That guarantee is not reserved for $3,500 precision builds; it comes standard on a rifle priced competitively for working hunters.
• Remington 700 footprint unlocks endless upgrades. The B-14 action uses the same 700 pattern that has the deepest aftermarket ecosystem in bolt-action history. Stocks, chassis, triggers, scope mounts—if it exists for a 700, it fits your Hunter. You’re not locked into Bergara parts; you’re free to build the rifle your way.
• Crisp, user-adjustable trigger from the factory. The Bergara Performance Trigger is set around 3–3.5 lbs straight out of the box and is fully adjustable 2–4 lbs with nothing more than an Allen key. No gunsmith required. Reviewers consistently compare it to aftermarket triggers costing twice as much.

Bergara’s Barrel Story

Bergara has spent decades manufacturing precision barrels for some of the world’s finest firearms makers, building a global reputation on consistency and accuracy. Every Bergara barrel follows a rigorous five-step process: straightening to exacting tolerances, deep-hole drilling, 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 the final profile. That process—which rivals hand-lapped custom barrels in quality—is why a B-14 Hunter shoots like a rifle twice its price. The rifle you hold is built on decades of Spanish gunmaking heritage and assembled by former USMC Precision Weapons Section alumni who built combat and competition rifles for Marines worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the .22-250 Remington good for hunting?

The .22-250 is a varmint and predator specialist that also works well on small to medium game (coyote, fox, prairie dog). Its flat trajectory and high velocity make it ideal for longer-range shots on open terrain. It’s not a typical big-game round, but in experienced hands it’s effective on deer-sized game at reasonable distances. If you hunt primarily large North American game, consider .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor in the B-14 Hunter line.

Can I adjust the trigger myself?

Yes. The Bergara Performance Trigger adjusts from 2 to 4 lbs using only an Allen key—no gunsmith, no special tools. The factory sets it around 3 to 3.5 lbs, which most shooters find crisp and shootable. Many owners keep it factory-set; others fine-tune it to personal preference. Instructions are included, and Bergara’s customer service is responsive if you have questions.

What magazines work with the B-14 Hunter?

The B-14 Hunter uses an internal box magazine with a hinged floor plate and holds 4 rounds of .22-250. Because the B-14 is built on the Remington 700 footprint, you have access to the largest aftermarket magazine ecosystem in bolt-action history if you choose to upgrade to detachable magazines down the road. Standard Remington 700 short-action magazines will not work as-is, but Bergara and third-party manufacturers offer drop-in solutions.

Does the B-14 Hunter come with iron sights?

No. The B-14 Hunter is set up for scoped hunting. The receiver is drilled and tapped for Remington 700-pattern scope mounts. A quality hunting scope and rings are essential; budget accordingly alongside your rifle purchase.

How does the weight compare to other hunting rifles?

At 7.1–7.3 lbs, the B-14 Hunter is one of the lightest centerfire hunting rifles available. For comparison, most traditional hunting rifles (Rem 700 ADL, Browning X-Bolt, Tikka T3) run 7.5–8.5 lbs. That half-pound difference is real after eight hours of hiking. The tradeoff—minimal recoil rise during follow-up shots due to light weight—is something you’ll notice and learn to manage with practice.
