Bergara B14

[Southernhunters]

I’m currently looking at getting Bergara B14 Ridge Wilderness in 300 Win. The only thing currently keeping me from the pulling the trigger is the “soft touch” stock. I’ve handled the gun and loved the shouldering and feel of it. My only worry is the longevity of the “soft touch” stock....? I don’t want issues like I’ve seen with others that have tried the same thing! Any experiences here guys??

I don't have any experience with their "soft touch" stock, but I do love the way my B14 Woodsman feels & looks.

I've not had any issues with mine.

If you don’t mind me asking, how long have you had it?

Two years or so. I've had it in salt water, snow, etc., it still looks like when I bought it.

I bought a B-14 Hunter and I really like the stock. I do have some extra confidence, however, knowing that if I ever need to replace it, there are tons of great aftermarket options because of the Remington 700 footprint.

They are suppose to be awesome rifles!

I've had mine about a year and a half, maybe 40-ish days out of the safe between range time and hunting. No issues with it yet. I think they caution about getting cleaning chemicals on it, and I've been careful to wipe anything away that does get on it. Beyond that, I don't take any pains with it. Pretty much still looks like new (pretty much is still new though).

I have 2 ridges. One in 300 win mag and one in 6.5 creedmore. The stock is good to go after 3 years. I did get them both cerokoted because the metal finish is just ok and they will rust. Great gun, they shoot good

Never had any issues. I have a B-14 Wilderness Ridge in 300WM.
