Bergara B-14 Stoke Compact Rifle .243 Winchester 20 in.

Description

The B-14 Stoke Compact is built for hunters and shooters who need a full-capability bolt rifle in a shorter, lighter package — one that handles well in the field without sacrificing the accuracy work that Bergara puts into every barrel. The compact format makes it a natural fit for younger shooters, hunters moving through tight timber, or anyone who finds a standard-length rifle awkward to carry or mount quickly.

The 1-in-10″ twist rate is well matched to the .243 Winchester’s practical range of bullet weights. It stabilizes the lighter, faster varmint loads reliably while still handling the heavier 100-grain projectiles that most hunters reach for on deer-sized game — so the rifle doesn’t force you into a narrow ammunition selection. The barrel wears a Graphite Black Cerakote finish, which offers corrosion resistance useful in wet field conditions without adding maintenance demands beyond basic cleaning.

The 5/8″-24 threaded muzzle lets you mount a suppressor or muzzle brake without additional machining. The stock is a fixed SoftTouch synthetic design with a black-webbed tan finish — it won’t warp or swell with moisture the way wood can, and the SoftTouch surface improves grip in rain or cold without requiring a separate grip wrap. The steel receiver carries the same Graphite Black Cerakote treatment as the barrel for a consistent, weather-resistant exterior. No iron sights are included, so plan to mount an optic before heading to the range; the smooth receiver profile is designed with that assumption in mind.
