Weatherby 307 Apline CT vs Bergara B-14 Squared Crest Carbon

[Junkel87]

Looking at getting either a Weatherby 307 alpine ct or Bergara B-14 crest carbon does anyone got any pros or cons with either. Or is one better then the other. They both seem equal from what I've read. This will be a western backcountry elk rifle. Looking at 6.5 PRC. I did look at seekins ph3 also but I have a ph2 and I'm not a huge fan of there stocks and nobody makes stocks for them. There also about a pound heavier, not sure how much that will matter but people always say every oz matters.

I handled both and went with the alpine CT. Biggest in the hands differenc efor me was I prefered the peak 44 stock to the bergara stock. Has been extremely accurate with factory eldm.

Ok awsome thanks. Unfortunately no places around me have either so I can't get hands on.

Lately it has come to the attention of several moderators on here that the posting of threads in the "General Forum" which are not suitable for the "General Forum" and are more suitable for the other forums such as "Elk Hunting", "Mule Deer", "Clothing", or "Gear" forums (for example) are becoming increased and the moderators and owners of the site are spending more time moving threads to their proper forum than working on our awesome reviews and being able to police the entire forum.

PLEASE, if you are contemplating posting in the General Forum, and the title of your thread or the body...

I’ve also handled both and went with the Weatherby. I have two rifles now with stocks from Peak 44 and I wish every rifle I own had one. I’m shooting excellent groups with my Alpine CT. I shot sub 1” groups with factory 175 ELD-X rounds in my 7mm PRC, but my best groups were from 162gr ELD-M handloads. Overall, it’s the best rifle I own for a variety of reasons.
