Bergara B14 HMR 6.5 Creedmoor barreled action cut down to 18” for sale. Has approximately 200 rounds through it and shoots great. The only reason I am selling is because I wanted something lighter and just ordered a Christensen Arms barreled action with a carbon fiber barrel. Comes with Bergara trigger, which is quite good for a factory trigger and 20 MOA Bergara scope base.

$700 net to me for the barreled action with trigger and 20 MOA scope base.
$1,200 as a complete rifle in the KRG Bravo Gen II with Arca rail and minimalist spigot mount.

Data: The 140 gr ELD-M load I worked up for my 24” 6.5 Creedmoor goes 2,630 fps compared to 2,760 which is less velocity loss than I would have expected for 6” less barrel. Also shoots 1/2 MOA. It’s a great shooter I just decided I wanted lighter weight so going the carbon fiber route.
I have a 130 gr Sierra game changer load I worked up for this rifle that goes 2,750 fps that would be a great hunting load. I have 50 rounds loaded up I can sell with it if you are interested.

I just ordered a used Grayboe Phoenix stock that I think will pair well with the Christensen Arms barreled action so the KRG bravo is for sale if anyone wants to pick it up on it's own. It has the KRG Arca rail and minimalist spigot mount.
$1,200 net to me as a full package(must ship to FFL)
$700 net to me barreled action with trigger and 20 moa scope base(must ship to FFL)
$460 shipped for the KRG bravo gen 2 with Arca rail and minimalist spigot
 
I actually do still have it. I took a pause on trying to sell it while working through an issue I had with the Christensen Arms Ridgeline barreled action I am replacing it with. I contemplated just keeping this Bergara action instead of my new Christensen action at one point. (The Christensen barreled action with a carbon fiber barrel shoots well but the cocking force is really heavy compared to the other bolt actions I have. I was able to work through that though)

Bergara list the HMR to have a # 6 taper. The diameter of the barrel measures 0.845” at the end right before the threaded portion. It’s definitely a heavier profile than a normal hunting rifle, but not a full on heavy profile.
It’s very accurate and great for keeping the length down with a suppressor. I saved about 1 lb changing to a Christensen Arms ridgeline action with a carbon fiber barrel.
