Key Features That Define the Bergara B-14 Timber

The Bergara B-14 Timber is not just a hunting rifle; it's a meticulously crafted precision tool designed for demanding conditions. Its array of features work in harmony to provide an exceptional shooting experience:

• World-Class Bergara Barrel: At the heart of the Timber's accuracy is its 24-inch, 4140 CrMo steel Bergara barrel. Finished with a durable Graphite Black Cerakote, this barrel is drilled and tapped, ready for your preferred optics. Crafted using advanced cold hammer forging techniques, Bergara barrels are famous for their consistent bore uniformity and exceptional accuracy, ensuring every shot counts. The 1:10" twist rate is ideally suited for stabilizing a wide range of .300 Win Mag bullet weights, making it incredibly versatile for various hunting scenarios and long-range shooting applications.
• Smooth Bergara B-14 Action: The rifle's super-smooth B-14 Action is a proprietary two-lug system renowned for its reliable performance. Featuring a sliding plate extractor (often referred to as a Sako-style extractor) and a coned bolt nose with a coned breech, this action ensures flawless feeding and extraction of cartridges. This design minimizes the chances of jams, providing a seamless and reliable operation critical during fast-paced hunting situations or competitive shooting. The action's compatibility with Remington 700 style rings and bases offers extensive aftermarket customization options for mounting optics.
• Classic Monte Carlo Walnut Stock: Aesthetic appeal meets ergonomic design in the Monte Carlo style walnut stock. This beautiful stock features a raised comb and cheek piece, providing optimal eye alignment with mounted optics, which is crucial for precision shooting. The natural warmth and classic look of walnut, finished with multiple coats of oil, make this rifle a true heirloom piece. Beyond its looks, the stock incorporates bedded integral pillars, enhancing the rifle's stability and further contributing to its impressive accuracy by creating a consistent bedding surface for the action.
• Reliable Internal Box Magazine: The B-14 Timber utilizes a robust internal box magazine with a hinged floor plate. This design offers reliable feeding and protects cartridges from external elements, making it ideal for rugged field conditions. With a 4+1 capacity, you'll have ample ammunition for most hunting scenarios without the added bulk of an external magazine.
• Crisp Bergara Performance Trigger: A good trigger is paramount for accuracy. The Bergara B-14 Timber comes equipped with a Bergara curved trigger designed to deliver a crisp, clean break with every pull. This precise trigger pull minimizes shooter-induced error, allowing you to maximize the rifle's inherent accuracy potential.
• Durable Cerakote Finish: Both the barrel and receiver boast a Graphite Black Cerakote finish. This advanced ceramic-based coating provides superior protection against corrosion, abrasion, and harsh weather conditions, ensuring your rifle maintains its pristine appearance and functional integrity for years, even in demanding environments.
• Right Hand Configuration with Manual Thumb Safety: Designed for right-handed shooters, the rifle features an intuitive manual thumb safety, providing an essential layer of security and control.
