Description
The Bergara B-14 HMR .22-250 Rem 24″ Graphite Black Cerakote is a production-ready precision rifle that bridges the gap between hunting and match shooting. Built around Bergara’s proprietary mini-chassis system, this bolt-action delivers consistent sub-MOA accuracy with a fully free-floated barrel and adjustable stock. Chambered in the flat-shooting .22-250 Remington, it’s a solid choice for varmint hunters and shooters who want repeatable precision without custom gunsmithing.

Key Features
- Integrated Mini-Chassis: The molded aluminum chassis provides rigid bedding and consistent barrel harmonics. Why it matters: It eliminates stock flex and torque-shift, so your point of impact stays the same from shot to shot.
- 24-Inch Graphite Black Cerakote Barrel: The barrel features a 1:8 twist rate and is fully free-floated. Why it matters: The twist stabilizes 22-250 bullets from 50 to 75 grains, and the Cerakote finish resists rust and corrosion from wet hunting conditions.
- Adjustable Cheekpiece and Length-of-Pull Spacers: The stock lets you raise the cheekpiece and add spacers for proper eye alignment with scopes. Why it matters: You get a custom fit without aftermarket parts, which improves consistency and recoil management.
- Threaded Muzzle with Thread Protector: Factory 5/8×24 threading accepts suppressors or brakes. Why it matters: You can attach a can without a smith, keeping the rifle quieter and reducing recoil for follow-up shots.
- AICS-Style 5-Round Detachable Magazine: The steel magazine feeds reliably and drops free. Why it matters: Faster reloads and compatibility with common AICS pattern mags make it easier to carry spare ammo.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter who also shoots matches, or the new shooter who wants one gun that does both. The .22-250 Remington is a flat-shooting round ideal for coyotes, prairie dogs, and other varmints out to 400 yards. The adjustable stock makes it work for different body types, and the mini-chassis means you don’t need to bed the action. If you’re a local shooter looking to step up from a budget rifle, this is a reliable upgrade that won’t require a gunsmith.
Pros and Cons
Pros: Sub-MOA accuracy out of the box, adjustable stock for a custom fit, Cerakote finish for weather resistance, threaded barrel for suppressors, uses common AICS magazines.
Cons: The stock’s plastic forend can flex under heavy bipod pressure, which may affect consistency at long range. Some shooters replace it with a chassis, but that adds cost.

The Bergara B-14 HMR gives you a complete precision rifle at a lower price than a Geissele build, and it’s ready to shoot out of the box. The Timney trigger is a good upgrade for a Remington 700, but you still need a barrel and stock. According to Bergara specs, the B-14 action is a true 700 clone, so aftermarket triggers and stocks fit if you want to modify later.
