About This Firearm
The Bergara B-14 HMR is a heavy bolt-action 6.5 PRC built for target work and dialed shots from a set position. It has an MSRP of $1,229. It weighs 9.70 lbs, with a mini-chassis molded into the stock instead of bolted into it, which free-floats the barrel and leaves no bedding to look after.
The stock has an adjustable cheekpiece and length-of-pull spacers, so the comb and the pull can be set to fit the shooter. Any standard Remington 700 rail bolts onto the action, so mounting is the cheapest part of the build. One AICS detachable magazine comes with it, holding three rounds in this chambering where the 6.5 Creedmoor HMR takes five. No sights are fitted.
If you're cross-shopping, the Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint has an MSRP of $1,995, weighs 7.38 lbs on a carbon fiber stock and carries a tighter .75 MOA guarantee. The Browning X-Bolt 2 Speed has an MSRP of $1,569.99 at 6.88 lbs with a threaded, braked muzzle and an adjustable comb. Both of those are built to be carried, and the Bergara is 2.82 lbs heavier than the Browning.

Strengths & Limitations
- Bergara guarantees sub-MOA, tested at 100 yards with match grade ammunition.
- The barrel is 4140 chrome-moly steel under Graphite Black Cerakote, and the rest of the rifle wears the same finish.
- The 1:8 twist handles the long 6.5mm bullets this cartridge is loaded with.
- At 9.70 lbs before an optic, this is a rifle set up at a position and not carried to one.
- A scope rail is not in the box, so a one-piece mount or a set of bases is part of the purchase.
- Three rounds is two fewer than the same rifle takes in 6.5 Creedmoor, so the reload comes sooner on a bench.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I check before buying a brake or a suppressor?
Measure the muzzle thread on the rifle before ordering either one.
Where is it made?
In Spain, by Bergara.
Are spare magazines easy to find?
The rifle feeds an AICS detachable box, a pattern made by several companies, so spares are not a single-source part.
