    Yeah my Bergara was embarrassing at the range for sure!

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    This is quite interesting news. I honestly would have considered that appropriate if I could have had that accuracy. Takes me back to wishing I would have tried my action in a different stock/chassis to see if it would have been different. Happy to see you getting improvement and continue to...

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    All of the guys I know where I bought the rifle are having similar thoughts after my experience. Hard to recommend. A lot of bad publicity for this company for sure. Not my intent as I know there are some that shoot well supposedly, but being transparent is what it is.

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    As I was only shooting match factory ammo, I estimate i was out about 500 there too. Looking back it was quite the mistake. Reloading is in the near future but I couldn't justify it with Bergara. with some 2" fliers there was no way I would try. Something is causing this.

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    I would never had thought that loosening action screw torque could improve groups, however I lost sleep over why a sub MOA guaranteed gun could shoot well for them and not me, when I can shoot other rifles as good as the creator of said rifle guarantees. If I am off with other rifles I know it...

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    Just curious. Do any of you guys with another chassis laying around to try this theory? If you were close to KC I have one!

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    This is very interesting and makes me wonder if their chassis system is sub par with varying results. I didn't think to drop my action in a different chassis before I got so frustrated and traded mine off at a huge loss. Still following along with you guys though!

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    About the same experience I had. They claimed they sent an email and it may be in my spam folder. Nope. They never sent an email at all. Assigned to a gunsmith...I don't believe this for a minute. Same story I got but a true gunsmith would not have considered mikehill85 group variation I don't...

    I really hope they do something to make it right, but sadly I did not get this with my experience. Good luck to you!

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    @mikehill85 I just wanted to let you know I threw in the towel today and traded the Bergara off. I only hade it about 2 months and 1 month was at Bergara. Lost half of my investment but honestly, I couldn't take knowing how poor it was and wasn't going to spend any more time trying to have them...

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    Man I wouldn't waste your time. A dud is a dud no matter how many things you try. I am beyond frustrated at this point and it isn't even about the money lost in this rifle or the ammo I burned up. I bought this rifle about 2 months ago and 1 month of that time it was at Bergara. I am to the...

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    I am more than willing to try Tikka and may consider this. It's got to be a lefty which I think they do. What do you recommend? Varmit version?

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    Mike, I took the BS rifle again today after getting it back from Bergara claiming it was within their specs with 140gr ELDM match. I took that, as well as 147gr and some other variations. Not a single difference than all of my experiences shooting it. 1.3-1.5 MOA. A fellow range member who was...

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    Go figure... I broke down and remounted my base and scope. Going to shoot today and also having a friend shoot it as well. We will see but just as before my hopes are not high. If anything I am getting really good at mounting bases, rings and scopes! Actually pretty fast at it now and know all...

    Bergara B-14 HMR problems

    Good luck with it and please report back! I think I am honestly done with mine. At first I thought I would remount the scope but as I think more about it, I am just wasting time and money knowing they did nothing and it is considered within their specs.

    The other thing I notice with your target which I have noticed with mine. If you didn't make any adjustments with same point of aim or scope adjustments, that is complete different points of impact as well!
