About
What it is, and why it matters
The Bergara B-14 Squared Crest is a lightweight bolt-action rifle chambered here in 6.5 PRC, built by Spanish barrel- and rifle-maker Bergara on its proven B-14 action. Introduced in the B-14 Squared (B-14 Squared) line, the Crest pairs a 4140 chrome-moly steel, fluted and free-floated barrel finished in Sniper Grey Cerakote with a 100 percent carbon-fiber monocoque stock featuring a full-length carbon spine, squared fore-end, high comb and adjustable length of pull. At roughly 3084g (6.8 lb) unloaded, it is purpose-built as a backcountry mountain hunting rifle that stays accurate over long carries. A single-stage, externally adjustable trigger breaks between one and three pounds, the 5/8x24 threaded muzzle ships with a Bergara Omni detachable muzzle brake, and the AICS-pattern detachable box magazine feeds the two-lug, coned-bolt action. Bergara backs the rifle with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee.
Bergara grew from a barrel-making operation in Spain's Basque Country, a region with centuries of gunsmithing tradition, into a maker of complete precision rifles. The B-14 Squared Crest represents its push into the ultralight mountain-hunting segment, mating the company's respected 4140 barrels with an aerospace-derived carbon-fiber stock so hunters can chase sub-MOA accuracy without the weight penalty of a steel-stocked rifle.
Specifications listed are for the 6.5 PRC chambering with a 20-inch (508mm) barrel and 1:8 twist; the platform is also offered in 6.5 Creedmoor, 7mm PRC, .308 Winchester and .300 Win Mag with 20- or 22-inch barrels and 1:8 or 1:10 twists. Unloaded weight of the steel-barrel Crest is about 6.8 lb; the separate Squared Crest Carbon variant with a carbon-wrapped barrel drops to roughly 6.2 lb. Overall length is 40 inches (20-inch barrel) or 43.5 inches (22-inch barrel). Trigger is a single-stage, externally adjustable unit factory-set near 1 lb 12.8 oz. Magazine capacity is five rounds (three for 7mm PRC). MSRP started around $1,999.
