I'm a huge fan of that chassis. Looks like it'll be a nice rig. Benchrest? PRS?
Nice, what paint did you use and how does it last?View attachment 1570193
Here's my B14R before swapping back to an unpainted stock for ARA Factory Class. It's wearing an Athlon Heras 15-60 now too
Thanks! It was just regular Krylon from Home Depot, I put a few layers of clear coat on it so it's holding up fine to bench use so farNice, what paint did you use and how does it last?
That's impressive with the factory barrel.....and a carbon one at that. Job well done. What twist does that KI barrel come with. I really wish there were more options with the Bergara B14R......barrel wise and twist wise. I know IBI offers a 12" twist but the last I checked, they weren't offering them outside Commie Canada. Pac-nor said they would do barrel for the B14R, but they need an original one first so they could duplicateBergara B14-R Carbon. TT Diamond Pro trigger, MDT XRS chassis with ARCA rail and 1 pound add on weight, Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 FFP scope.
I built the custom front bipod on my CNC that quick locks onto the ARCA rail.
Just ordered a KI Precision 24” barrel for it. Also forgot to mention with it I just won a 100 yard IBS shoot with a score of 497 12X out of a possible 500.

Is that a CZ 457 MTR?
Nice, my friend has one he loves it. Shoots well in our local rimfire mini palma/f-class matches.
Yes, this one was prepared by Area 419. I just added all the do dads and thingamajigs.Is that a CZ 457 MTR?
How does it shoot?
Did your rifle come in and if so, have you shoot it yet?Got this Bergara B14R coming in a few days. Planning to put Weaver T36 on it. Sellers photo. Hope it's a good shooter. Came in today so I took a few more pics. Gun looks great, the bolt is nice and smooth. Trigger is about 3# but I plan to replace it soon. The scope of choice is a Weaver T36 for bench shooting.

Looks really good. I like the TT Diamond Pro in mine. Set it to 13 oz. Just bougth some more Lapua Polar Biathlon but have not tried it yet. Hope to make it to a shoot this weekend and give it a try. Will be curious on what ammo yours likes, please let me know.Yes it did. I shot a few rounds but did not really get to test ammo yet. It functioned great, bolt was smooth and it ejected the casings easily. Installed Triggertech Diamond trigger and shot it at just under a pound. Since the group below was shot I have adjusted down to 9 ounces.
This was 10 rounds of random Center X at 50 yards.
