Bergara Small Batch is a new series of custom firearms recently announced by Bergara North America. Comparing to small batch whiskey, the company describes the guns that will be included in this series as “Refined in Spain, Barreled in Georgia” which apparently means that these custom builds will be done by American gunsmiths in the Bergara North America premises in Lawrenceville, GA, based on the main components imported from their factory in Spain.

According to Bergara, their new Premier Competition Rifle is their most accurate and highest-performing production class PRS style rifle that exists. All you need is to pair it with your optic, zero it and the rifle is competition-ready right out of the box. This rifle could be quite nice for the upcoming  Precision Rifle World Championships 2022. If you have used the Arca Swiss rail before, you know it’s great for easy and fast adjustments. Of course, you’ll find it on a rifle like this, focused on PRS-style shooting.

Bergara’s lineup of rimfire rifles has a new addition, the Bergara Micro Rimfire. Unlike the other Bergara rimfires, the BMR is built on a dedicated rimfire micro receiver (the Bergara B-14R mimics the size of a standard short action rifle, and the Bergara BXR is a 10/22-pattern rifle). While it is a smaller action, the BMR is still compatible with standard Remington 700 triggers. The safety, firing pin indicator, and ambidextrous magazine release all appear in the same locations as on centerfire Bergara rifles.

The Bergara BXR is a precision-oriented clone of the Ruger 10/22 available with a fluted steel barrel, or carbon fiber wrapped barrel. The BXR promises to deliver the match accuracy of an expensive custom rimfire rifle, for the price of a slightly less expensive custom rimfire rifle.

Back in October Bergara announced the B-14R, a .22LR rifle geared toward training with a rifle built to a similar spec as larger calibre REM700 rifles to emulate feed and handling. The B-14R is now shipping. It is based on a full-size receiver design, it provides a platform that allows shooters the ability to customise their rifle with readily available accessories already on the market. The B-14R has a 10-round modified single stack magazine which is built to similar dimensions as a standard short action AICS magazine.

So you think think the Ruger PC Carbine is too common and boring? Well, Today’s Photo Of The Day is going to give you some inspiration.

To give people a hint of their new rifle, Bergara North America showed the public a picture of the magazine (see below).

The world of firearms is constantly evolving with new trends and fresh popular styles. While shooting guns long distances is not something new, the popularity of it quite possibly has never been stronger. Being able to push technology and an individual shooter’s prowess out to extreme distances can be supremely gratifying. Such leagues as the Precision Rifle Series are soaring in popularity where shooters are not only challenged in the distances they fire, but also the positions. Because of this growing love for long-range, I have also been eyeing a specific rifle: the Bergara HMR Pro in 6.5 Creedmoor. For that reason, we will take a look at one in this TFB Review!

In this #SHOTShow episode of TFBTV, I talk with Kevin from Davidson’s. While you may be aware of Davidson’s being a huge distributor for firearms, what you may not know is about Gallery of Guns. The Gallery of Guns lets you purchase firearms, to include a bunch of Davidson’s Exclusives, directly through your local gun shop. They have exclusive offerings through Sig Sauer, Begara and Les Baer to name a few.

Bergara has a new line of rifles for 2018. Their B-14 series has been widely popular and last year they introduced some precision models along with 6.5 Creedmoor. Well this year they are upping the ante and making a Premier line of HMR rifles.

Bergara Rifles is reporting that their new B-14 model is in high demand with the current shift in the gun market. What shift? The one where every retailer has put on their try hard pants and is doing their absolute best to move modern sporting rifles like the good ol’ days but are failing miserably.

The Bergara B14 HMR is nothing short of an impressive collection of specs that will wow even the most discerning of buyer. In this episode of TFBTV, Patrick takes the B14 HMR out to the range with the intention of finding out if all of those specs come together as a well-rounded rifle that is capable of hanging with some of the high-quality custom builds that it resembles. Unfortunately, the wind did not want to play nice and Patrick’s range day didn’t quite go as planned.

The Firearm Blog was very productive day at the SHOT 2017 Industry Range Day. Below are some photo highlights of the day, as well as some interesting and innovative products!

Bergara has just announced a new chassis rifle – the B14 BMP. Chambered in either .308Win of 6.5 Creedmoor, the entities chassis is built from 7075 T6 Aluminum that is hard coat anodized. The forend features several M-LOK attachment slots whereas the stock incorporates several adjustment points to fine tune a proper fit for each shooter.

In a world where development has gone semi-auto mad, its refreshing to see a company take a step back and work on refining what has worked for over a hundred years – the traditional hunting bolt-action rifle. Introduced just a few years ago, the Bergara B-14 rifles are exactly that, traditional hunting bolt-action rifles, this time designed to provide premium feel for less.
