Bergara B-14 Sierra 25 Creedmoor Rifle, 20 in.

Description

The B-14 Wilderness Sierra is built for hunters who want a packable, field-ready bolt gun without giving up the ergonomic adjustability that most hunting-weight rifles skip. It sits in Bergara’s Wilderness Series, meaning the stock is a SoftTouch Wilderness Camo synthetic rather than wood or a bare fiberglass lay-up — a material choice that sheds moisture and resists the surface finish damage that comes with hard use in rough country.

The comb is adjustable, which matters most when you’re switching between shooting positions or running different optics. A fixed comb locks you into a single cheek-weld height; this one lets you dial the comb to put your eye where it needs to be, rather than adapting your mount to a stock that doesn’t fit.

The barrel is a fluted #5-taper profile in 4140 CrMo steel with a Sniper Gray Cerakote finish, and it’s threaded 5/8×24. The fluting takes weight off a relatively stout contour without meaningfully reducing stiffness, which is a reasonable trade on a rifle you’re carrying rather than shooting from a bench. The 1:7.5-inch twist is on the faster end for .25-caliber bores and is well-suited to stabilizing heavier-for-caliber projectiles in 25 Creedmoor — if you’re planning to run lighter, faster loads, worth confirming bullet stability at the shorter end of the weight range. Feeding is handled by a hinged floorplate with a four-round capacity. The receiver is steel, drilled and tapped for scope mounting, and the two-position safety gives you a positive, tactile on-off without a separate bolt-lock position to navigate in the field.
