Is the Bergara B14 action any good for a custom build?

[QUOTE="Tex_Hunter, post: 1782006, member: 31749"] I have a couple of B14's, I talked to a smith who had experience building a few of them about building one of mine and the comment was basically that they have to be trued just like any other factory action. I love my Bergaras though, both shoot sub .5MOA with hand loads with a variety of bullet weights/types and one was capable of very consistent 0.5-0.75 MOA with factory ammo too. I had an issue with primer cratering on one and they replaced my bolt with one of the the 2 piece fluted stainless bolts with the floating bolt head out of their premier series (it was literally a drop in replacement with a go/no-go gauge to check HS) and it's pretty much perfect now. That's the one I would have built in the future if I ever decide it needs a new barrel. [/QUOTE]
