We took possesion of the Bergara B-14 Wilderness Ridge rifle in a 7 mm remington magnum just some weeks ag0. We topped the gun with a Leupold 4-20 VX5 scope mounted on Warne rings.
We had been actually excited how cool it regarded, and had been anxious to check out the legendary accuracy claims.
Our first journeys to the vary had been all with manufacturing facility ammo as we went via the break in course of outlined on the Bergara net web page: Clear the Gun after every of the primary 5 pictures, then clear the gun each 10 pictures for the subsequent 50…then clear as wanted.

We all know it’s the buzz phrase, and the present rage…however we hope to make this an extended vary looking gun for underneath $1500. We really hope to simply make it an excellent lengthy vary gun whatever the value.

We discovered the gun to fulfill the 1 MOA assure proper from the primary shot fired, NICE. We additionally discovered that the teams undoubtedly tightened as we continued alongside the trail of breaking within the rifle.

As soon as we had accomplished the break in course of and shot about 50 rounds via the gun, we labored up a hand load: 61.5 grains IMR 4831, 162 grain ElD-X, seated simply off of the lands.

We then headed again to the vary for some extra capturing, in a bit of higher setting, and with no wind..lastly.

The capturing went very properly! We shot the gun with the muzzle break on, and with it off. We felt just like the muzzle break diminished the general kick round 50% making it very comfy to shoot a 7mm MAGNUM time and again with no shoulder points in any respect.

The gun feels good on the bench and within the discipline. It does have a little bit of a heavy barrel, and might are likely to rock ahead within the sling over your shoulder, however this can be a minor concern and doesn’t occur a lot.

The set off on this gun, proper from the issue was set at about 3 kilos, which made it a dream to shoot. It has no creep and stunned us every time the gun went off. Bergara places a superb set off on this gun and is straightforward to regulate and really crisp.

After working up a load, and capturing the gun round 75 instances, we had been now capable of repeatedly shoot a .5 MOA group. We additionally took the gun out to 700 yards, and clanked the gong 5 instances in a row. YES!

The Bergara b-14 Wilderness Ridge is a prime performing gun. We find it irresistible and are completely offered on Bergara high quality, performance, and accuracy. Effectively achieved Bergara, we would like extra!

What they may do higher:
The inventory is simply okay trying. We really feel a greater sample of camo could be extra interesting.
