Any owners of the Bergara B14 Squared Crest? Looks promising.

That looks like a great western rig. Light weight but not so light it's hard to shoot.
I'd prefer a little more twist for mono's but otherwise a great package in a factory rifle.

I have a buddy with one in 6.5 prc. We just shot the Leupold Relentless shoot in Oregon. He was very happy with the rifle. It's light weight, seems to be a good shooter with the 147 eldm. The Omni brake it comes with works but blows crap everywhere, like a radial brake does. We did have problems with light primer strikes at the end of the first day at the match. Ended up pulling the bolt apart and cleaning the hell out of it. Grease and fine dirt are not friends. Once we did that the rifle was good to go. His load was lapua brass, 147 eldm, retumbo powder and cci200 primers. I believe velocity was around 2820.
Overall he is very happy with the rifle.
Oh one other thing, the factory trigger is ok and that's it. Needs a trigger tech installed. He couldn't change any components because he shot factory class.
I will say though, for a factory class nrl hunter rifle it's a good choice. He plans on deer hunting with it this year.
