Rimfire Gallery--Show Us Your Gun

Bergara 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.
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 duplicate
 
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.

Thanks, it shot really well with the new chassis and bipod setup. The KI barrel is a 1-16 twist. From what I have read or seen, a 1-12 or 1-16 both are good between 100 and 300 yards. A guy on Youtube did that test and at 300 yards, both were identical to him with a 7” spread. I think it is mainly all in the ammo and what your gun/barrel likes.

I shot the Lupua Polar Biathlon and it really worked well to win the IBS competition. Just bought another brick to use until the new barrel gets made. Think the higher speed and our shorter barrels may help it through the supersonic transition. Mine is very loud compared to other with 24-26” barrels. In about another 4-5 weeks and I will find out if that holds water.

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.

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.
 
Here is my Weatherby Mark XXII. Beautiful rifle combination of WB and Anschutz 64. If I could only get the bolt back in the rifle I would love it even more. :)
