Bergara B-14 Wilderness Series Ridge Rifle, Bolt Action Rifle, 300 Winchester Magnum, 24″ Barrel

Product Description

The Bergara B-14 Wilderness Sierra in 300 Win Mag is a precision hunting rifle built for shooters who refuse to compromise between traditional field ergonomics and modern detachable magazine capability. This 24-inch fluted barrel rifle delivers sub-MOA accuracy from the box, paired with an adjustable comb that lets you dial in perfect cheek weld height for any optic—no new stock required. The M5 bottom metal accepts both AICS detachable magazines and a hinged floor plate, giving you flexibility in the field that most hunting rifles simply don’t offer.

Specifications

What Makes the B-14 Wilderness Sierra Different

• Adjustable comb via Allen key: Change cheek weld height without buying a new stock. Perfect eye-to-scope alignment takes minutes, not money.
• M5 bottom metal with dual-feed capability: Run modern AICS detachable magazines for speed and efficiency, or switch to a traditional hinged floor plate for classic field hunting—both options are included.
• Fluted 24-inch barrel: Reduces weight and improves heat dissipation compared to the standard Ridge sporter profile, keeping your rifle at optimal temperature during extended range sessions or pack-in hunts.
• Sniper Grey Cerakote finish and Omni Muzzle Brake: Factory-applied weather resistance and recoil management designed for backcountry conditions where you can’t baby your gear.
• Full Remington 700 footprint compatibility: The largest aftermarket ecosystem in bolt-action history means stocks, chassis, triggers, and scope mounts from dozens of manufacturers will drop right in.

Bergara’s Barrel Story

Bergara has manufactured precision barrels in the Basque region of Spain for decades, earning a global reputation for consistency that rivals custom gunmakers. Every Bergara barrel undergoes a rigorous 5-step process: precision straightening, 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. This heritage—combined with assembly by former USMC Precision Weapons Section armorers in Georgia—means your Wilderness Sierra shoots like a hand-lapped custom rifle at production prices.

300 Win Mag: The Right Choice for Long-Range Hunting

The 300 Winchester Magnum is the most versatile magnum cartridge ever designed. It delivers flat trajectories and retained energy from 300 to 500+ yards, making it equally at home on mule deer, elk, and moose. The 24-inch barrel in this rifle gives you optimal velocity without the barrel-heavy feel of longer magnums, and the adjustable comb ensures your optic sits at the right height for consistency at distance. In 300 Win Mag, this rifle becomes a genuine long-range hunting platform that still weighs less than 8 lbs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use standard Remington 700 stocks and accessories on the B-14 Wilderness Sierra?

Yes. The B-14 action is built on the Remington 700 footprint with a two-lug system, coned bolt nose, and threaded oversized bolt knob. This means you have access to decades of aftermarket innovation—stocks, chassis, triggers, scope mounts, and more will all fit without modification. The B-14 actually improves on the Remington design with a stronger bolt stop, making it a drop-in upgrade for shooters who want to customize their rifle.

What’s the difference between AICS magazines and the hinged floor plate, and which should I use?

The M5 bottom metal comes with both options. AICS detachable magazines are faster to reload in the field, offer higher capacity in some configurations, and let you swap loads quickly. A hinged floor plate is lighter, simpler to maintain, and more traditional for hunting—there’s less to lose in rough terrain. The beauty of this rifle is that you can use either system and swap between them with basic tools, so you’re not locked into one approach.

How do I adjust the comb, and do I need to remove the rifle from service?

The adjustable comb is controlled by an Allen key (wrench) on the side of the stock. You don’t need to remove the action or optics—simply loosen the key, slide the comb up or down in 1/4-inch increments, and retighten. This takes about 30 seconds and lets you dial in a perfect cheek weld for your specific optic height and face geometry. It’s one of the smartest upgrades Bergara built into this rifle.

Is the Bergara Performance Trigger adjustable by the user?

Yes. The Performance Trigger is factory-set to approximately 3–3.5 lbs, but you can adjust it yourself using an Allen key to anywhere between 2 and 4 lbs. No gunsmith required. Most users find the factory setting crisp and predictable—reviewers consistently rate it on par with upgraded aftermarket triggers costing two or three times the price.

What kind of accuracy can I expect out of the box?

Bergara backs every rifle with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee. That means your Wilderness Sierra will print groups under 1 inch at 100 yards with quality factory ammunition—straight from the box, no bedding or break-in required. In real-world testing, most shooters see 0.5–0.75 MOA with premium factory loads. The fluted barrel and Bergara’s precision manufacturing are built for consistency.

Does this rifle come with the Omni Muzzle Brake, or is that an aftermarket addition?

The Omni Muzzle Brake comes factory-installed and is threaded 5/8×24. If you prefer a different brake or a suppressor, the barrel is threaded for easy swaps. The brake is finished in Sniper Grey Cerakote to match the rest of the rifle and is designed to reduce felt recoil—important when hunting at distance with a magnum cartridge.

What’s the weight of the Wilderness Sierra, and how does it compare to other hunting rifles?

The B-14 Wilderness Sierra in 300 Win Mag weighs 7.4–7.7 lbs depending on configuration. That’s remarkably light for a fluted magnum hunting rifle with an adjustable comb and M5 bottom metal. The fluted barrel saves about half a pound compared to a solid barrel, and the sporter profile keeps you under 8 lbs—ideal for pack-in hunting where every ounce counts but you don’t want to sacrifice rigidity.
