Dropped the Bergara in an MPA BA Comp Chassis and installed a Timney 510 trigger. Everything is working great! Very happy with this rifle so far.

Sorry, I should have proof read a bit. Have you done a 6x5. That is, 6 5-shot groups at 100. It's a great measure for the consistency of a rifle. I'm sure jbell would love to add some B14R stats to the 6x5 thread.

6X5 Thread V4.0 *new 1/1/20*
I always do 10 shot groups and I did do several at 50 and 100 yards. I just didn't post all of the pics. All of the groups are 1 MOA or less with the chassis. My groups were a bit larger with the factory stock but not by much. The factory stock is ok for what it is but I shoot better with the MPA.
 
I did a review on Precision Rifle Network with this rifle in it's stock form.
Just a note that the ejection issue mentioned in the video has been 100% resolved. Bergara shipped me a new bolt overnight. Have since put over 300 rounds through it and not a single hiccup.

Sorry for a bit of a resurrection here.

Just wanted to add that I have been running a TTD set at 8oz for ~1krds in my carbon and have had zero issues with reliability or safety.

Have seen a lot of people concerned about this, just want to clear it up. Seems to me it was perhaps more of a problem with earlier rifles.

Nice shooting btw. Currently contemplating what chassis to throw mine in and leaning MPA was well.
