If the one comment is possibly correct on the chamber being bad, Bergara I would think would make it right. Just a thought. Exhaust all possibilities ( scope, mounts, muzzle) and contact Bergara. If they want it back, that's a startAh, this stings the more I think about it. I paid to have a $100 muzzle brake resurfaced and permanently attached. Guess that's gone. Guessing I have to remove the optic and pay to have that all redone. Guess the fire formed modified case I paid to have made will be useless with a new barrel. Things just keep getting added the the "ouch" factor. Unless Bergara conjures up a miracle to make this right I think I'm going to light it on fire and buy a rifle from a different manufacturer. -10/5 stars

Shouldn't cause a problem if it's a chamber issueCustomer installed muzzle brake could be a warranty problem. Ask me how I know. That was with a Browning.

Apologies if I overlooked it, but how are you throwing your charges? I could hand charge cases with a kitchen spoon and get ES that's better than what you are seeing, so you either have a chrono problem or another very serious problem somewhere in your process. I did notice that on one of my new Bergaras the barrel took about 100-150 rounds for the ES to settle down (mind you settling down meant it went from 45 or so with Hornady factory rounds to around 15-20 with the same lot) Regardless of ES, the rifle never shot more than .75MOA from round one once I got it zeroed.Super frustrated. Review of this rifle and reading past experiences make it look fine, but I'm wondering if my barrel is defective? I did a proper break in procedure.
Bergara B14 HMR in 300WinMag. Gunwerks brass that's now on it's second firing. Berger 215s with H1000 powder and CCI 250s.
I try to load to perfection. My shoulder bumping, trimming, and seating is all within .001.
I fire formed my first 100 pieces and gathered data working up a ladder.The groups were all pretty terrible never even reaching 1 MOA but I figured was because of new brass. Now that I have my first round of fire formed brass I loaded as perfect as possible I'm still shooting god awful groups. It doesn't matter if I lock it up in a sled, shoot from a bench, or prone with a bipod.
My Pro Chrono 2 is showing an ES of nearly 200fps.
What in the world is going on? This has been incredibly expensive to shoot such garbage and still nowhere near a good load. Factory ammo wasn't match grade but still shot no better than 1.5MOA.
Advice?
Looks like burger calls for a 1 in 9May have already been said, but try shooting it with the break off. Also, try the 190 bergers. Twist rate of 1:10 may be right on the edge for those heavy 215 bergers. Not all guns like that heavy bullet. Try a fresh lot of powder and make sure your neck tension is consistent.
i had same prob with 6.5 hunter sent back to factory with what was going on they returned with no help with prob i called & talked with rifle builder he told me to lose action screws retighten to 55in lbs lug 1st then tang solved my issue good luckSuper frustrated.
