Not yet, but thanks for the reminder. I'll see if I can swing it tomorrow and report back.


OK, finally got a chance to do some stock swapping on the B-14. Mind you this is a sample of one. Using a B-14 in 6.5 Creedmoor, I had no problems dropping it in a McMillan 700 S/A BDL Compact. On the other hand it would not drop-in a High Tech Specialties 700 BDL S/A. The mortise for the High Tech as it comes in factory form, needs to be opened up slightly and there is room in the stock to do so. The recoil lug mortise on the McM is generous. No issues with the trigger on either stock. Bergara hinged floorplate and trigger-guard was a snug fit, but fit none-the-less.

All of this said, I would have no hesitation in buying a Bergara B-14, with an eye towards a future upgrade to a McM stock. Hope this helps.


I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.
