Any hands on feedback for Bergara B14-R?

Looking to purchase another 22lr bolt gun. Anyone shot these? Thoughts and opinions?
Thinking about the barreled action and putting in Rem 700 SA stock I have.

had mine about a month, Put a Jewell trigger in it set at about 4 ounces and it's a real tack driver with Lapua Center X, Mine is the carbon fiber barrel and couldn't be happier with it, It shoots better than I'll ever be able to

I love mine! Shoots great with a variety of ammo. A good lot of Lapua Center X will stay in the .2's at 50 yards. I did replace the factory trigger.

I bought the steel barrel version from my local gun shop and so far I’ve added a Jewels trigger set at 2 ounces and a 15x55 NF on it. Tuner is in the works. Best group so far has been in high .2” but most groups are in the .3” All shots has been taken using a bipod and rear sand bag at 50 yards. Generally it will throw one out that opens up the group using Midis. I’ve only tried one lot of ammo that shoot extremely well out of my 40X so far.
Two other guys I shoot with has them and mine shoots the best out of the three.
Going to have to get it down to one hole to be competitive in the game I play. I have to leave the stock, action and barrel in the factor configuration but we can add anything to the action or stock.

I have had my B14R about 4 months. I changed the trigger to a Trigger Tech Diamond it is set at 8 oz. It will shoot in the 0.2's at 50 yds. I have shot 1" to 1.5" groups at 200yds. I shoot on steel past 50 yds so no group pics of groups.

Mine is great but they just changed the rules where I shoot and now i can't shoot it there, I installed a Jewell trigger too and love it, Listed it for sale on Rimfire central and a couple local sites, somebody might as well enjoy it! This is 3 shots at 33 yards with center X that I shot today
