Description
The Bergara B-14 Ridge .300 PRC 24-inch Synthetic, 2-Round is a production hunting rifle that brings Bergara’s barrel-making expertise straight to your shoulder. Chambered in .300 PRC, this bolt-action model pairs a 24-inch threaded barrel with a synthetic American-style stock finished in SoftTouch. It ships with a hinged floorplate and a two-round magazine, and the action is factory drilled and tapped for Remington 700-style bases. This rig balances field-ready handling with the long-range punch of the .300 PRC cartridge.

Key Features
- Bergara Precision Barrel – Why it matters: Cold hammer-forged and hand-lapped, this barrel delivers sub-MOA accuracy out of the box, so you can trust your shot at extended ranges without rebarreling.
- SoftTouch Synthetic Stock – Why it matters: The textured finish gives you a secure grip in wet or cold conditions, and the stock won’t warp like wood, keeping zero consistent hunt after hunt.
- Hinged Floorplate with 2-Round Magazine – Why it matters: Quick unloading without cycling rounds through the action, and the low-profile magazine keeps the rifle sleek for carrying through brush.
- Factory Drilled and Tapped for Remington 700 Bases – Why it matters: You can mount nearly any scope base on the market without gunsmithing, saving time and money when setting up your optic.
- Threaded 5/8-24 Muzzle – Why it matters: Attach a suppressor or brake directly to the barrel for recoil management or noise reduction, making follow-up shots faster and more comfortable.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for the hunter who wants to reach past 400 yards without switching to a dedicated long-range rig. It’s also a solid pick for the new gun owner who wants one rifle that can handle elk, mule deer, and target work with the same setup. If you’re upgrading from a budget rifle, the B-14 Ridge gives you Bergara’s barrel accuracy without the custom price tag.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Excellent out-of-box accuracy; .300 PRC offers flat trajectory and retained energy past 800 yards; threaded barrel ready for accessories; Remington 700 footprint for easy customization.
- Cons: The 2-round magazine capacity is limiting for follow-up shots on multiple targets; factory stock lacks adjustable cheek rest, so you may need a cheek pad for high-mounted scopes.

FAQ
Does this rifle come with scope bases or rings?
No, the action is factory drilled and tapped for Remington 700-style bases, but bases and rings are sold separately. You can use any standard R700 base set.
Can I use .300 Winchester Magnum ammo in this rifle?
No. The .300 PRC chamber is not interchangeable with .300 Win Mag. The cartridge case head and overall length are different, so only use .300 PRC ammunition.
What is the twist rate of the barrel?
Bergara specs a 1:8 twist rate for the .300 PRC barrel, which stabilizes heavy bullets (200-230 grains) commonly used for long-range hunting.
Is this rifle suitable for left-handed shooters?
This model is a right-handed bolt action. Bergara does offer left-handed versions in some B-14 models, but the Ridge .300 PRC is currently available only in right-hand configuration.
