Bergara B-14 Squared Crest in 300 Win Mag - First Shots and Sighting In
First time out at the Range with the Bergara B-14 Squared Crest in 300 Win Mag. So far so good - grouping great at 100 yards with the 1st ammo I tried.

We were taught in the Corps to exhale and hold, then squeeze. You are correct sir.
Been holding my breath my whole life for shots. I can't even stop doing anymore.... I agree with you. Everybody should do what they want to do not what they are told. Thanks WTW
👍👍
Agreed! Try some things and do what you do best!
I take a deep breath and then let out half of it and then hold it before I release the shot.
I know ya work hard getting them out and we appreciate it
My crest in 308 also used to throw one shot out of most groups, also it shot just under 1 inch or slightly over with 5 different loads. After 100 rounds it fixed itself! No more flyers and 1/2 inch groups with most quality ammo. Heck it shoots sub moa with cheap lithuanian ggg !
thats intersting to hear! i recently got a bergara hmr in 308 and its doing the same thing with having 3 close shots then one goes way out to the left or right. Im at around 70 rounds through it so i hope at around 100 it will tighten up
Love your videos man keep up the good work
Appreciate you watching!
As with some other comments, cheek weld, natural respiratory pause, follow through etc are all things that are taught in long range shooting. Staying with what you always have done sometimes get you through. My older brother never had formal training and I’ll be damned if he isn’t a pretty good long gunner.
Very nice boolot slinger. I’ve noticed that the Remington ammo you’ve been shooting has be amazingly accurate in your rifles as a whole. The new Rem ammo company is doing some good things. Keep up the great content. You’ve come a long way in video and shooting content.
🙏🙏🙏 appreciate you watching
Love the videos
Dude, that is a SEXY looking rifle! That stock and finish is 👌
Now THIS is about to be a really fun video! Ive wanted this exact rifle for so long! And its in my favorite caliber! ✌️✌️
I'm hoping he shoots Norma 180 Bondstrike and Norma 150 whitetail ammo. My Tikka 300WM shoots both of those factory ammunition as well or better than any custom I own
I own the bergara wilderness ridge. Excellent rifle. I'm ready to get a new bergara with a carbon fiver barrel. Jist trying to narrow down my options
@c.r.rg9529 I can't decide between this bergara and the savage 110 ultralight. Both are amazing rifles for the price! The savage with the proof research barrel is really tempting. But bergara has some of the nicest factory stocks I've ever handled.
Me tooooo
@derekmcmurry4263 do you like the 150 grain
Good to see your video tonight, been missing you bro.
Appreciate you watching!
Great looking rifle and shoots not bad with that off the shelf green and yellow box stuff .
My Bergera Crest loves the 180 tipped Remingtons too. I’ve been averaging just under half a inch @ 100. Don’t have that many rounds through it yet and from what I’ve heard, they do get better once fully broken in or seasoned as some say.
Great minds think alike. I have a b14 walnut cerakoted in 300 win mag on layaway for Christmas. Not exactly sure what I’ll shoot with it .Ammo ain’t cheap but what is anymore…I went ahead and bought the fancy bullets since they ain’t much more in 300. Good ole core lokt are like $40 a box in most places. I spent a few more dollars a box and and can get coppers online on sale. Online prices vary wildly on 300 win mag and 7mm. 2 of my old favorites;) Keep em coming
With H1000 and Hornady 180 interlocks i get about .6 moa pretty consistently from my B14 ridge.
May need to get my hands on some H1000. I’m having fits trying to find something my 300wm Ridge will shoot well.
@CB-ck6ze Norma Brass, 82grn of H1000, topped with a 180gn Hornady Interlock gets me a tad over 3000fps. Serious medicine for about anything.
For a high caliber rifle the precision was swat team sharp shooter worthy. Great shooting! I wasn't expecting that, especially the first shots out of new rifle. Then again it always takes me awhile to dial in with new weapon. You're a natural, making it look easy. Way to go!
I get a lot of practice.....and sometimes get lucky!
Here's my take on the third flyer you're getting on your groups... you fire two shots and then push your sled forward. Then the third shot goes high. The fact that this occurs on a regular basis tells me it's not you or the gun, instead its your sled/base. when you push the sled forward it's not going back to the same spot, not the same stable platform you had, especially important on a wood bench top. On the last group you shot you fired an extra bullet without moving the sled forward, causing the bullet to move back to the group you were on before. Anyways, that's my take on it... Love the channel, love the guns you've been testing. Keep it coming!!
Hi Adam ! Was looking at Bergara 14's in many configurations BUT After I seen your video on the Sako 20 in 7MMRM, I went out and purchased the rifle in Fusion color !!.... It's a great shooting gun and looks great too !!
Gotta love a sako
😮 that is an Awsome looking bit of gear ! wow.
You got it!
Bergara's are actually great shooters.
My bergara shot well out of the box. But when I started load development it really came into its element.
Beautiful rifle
Ooh, nice stuff! 👌 😊
Awesome rifle. It’s the safety actually lock the bolt handle. Thanks
Great toy!!! I'll be interesting to see you shooting with bags to see the difference on the group shooting. Thanks for your content!!!!
Thanks for watching
Nice stuff. Just got my Bergara B14 HMR set up for my hunt next week
Good luck!
Good looking rifle. But im not a fan of short barrels. For me, i want a 26" for long action and magnum cartridges. And 24" for short action non magnum rounds. Great video as always WTW!
Nice Rifle 💯 Great Video 💯💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Sweet rifle.
Nice looking show and great looking rifle 😁👌👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍
Dude that is one cool looking Bing bang. You really know how to dress them up love it
Very nice rifle cool video thanks man
Thanks for watching
Awesome !!
Thing is pretty sweet
Thats a nice one ! Put em nice & tight !
Great video great shootin glad to hear you say you are in church bless you my friend
Harvested a nice 8point today... Virginia whitetail... Appalachian mountains..
Awesome!
“I don’t feel right gotta have my hat on” 🤣🤣 we are two in the same brother lol awesome video, my next bolt will more than likely be the HMR Wilderness in 300 Win Mag
🤣🤣🤣
Very nice ! How many shots do you fire with rifle between cleaning the barrel. Everyone seems to be different, just curious what you do for cleanings.
It would be interesting to use the same load and shoot a group with and without the can.Some days it looks like you can squeeze out a little more accuracy with a can vs a muzzle break. Food for thought.
Great video and nice rifle but i think the howa is the winner
My Bergara Wilderness Terrain 7 RM does the same thing when I run my can. With the muzzle break it stacks them. Could just be me... and makes no sense but who knows. 150 Core-Lokt Tipped is the best ammo I've run. With the can it's about 3" high and 1 1/2" right vs no can.
I'd bet some Berger's would be the ticket. My Bergara B-14 Ridge in 300 WM puts their 185 grain Classic Hunter's through the same hole typically (w/ Fed 215's; N565; Lapua brass).
Now waiting for the 300prc
I’ve always held my breath
Great looking rifle but I think Howa 1500 has it beat should do a Howa vs Bergra video
glad to see you put your ear protection in, eventually. Lol. Gotta like those Bergaras
Surprised a Bergara in 300WM shot this well. Wish mine would have.
Does that stock have a pad under the barrel at the end of the stock? I bought a Remington 700 in 243. The owner bought 2 boxes of ammo and didn't shot all 40 rounds before trading it in. I removed the pad and it is now a one hole rifle. Love your videos.
Like them boo lotts you send down range with that boo lottt slinger ma jigg
I have one in 7 prc. Love it. Topped with a black hound evolve.
How’s it shooting? And how does that huge magazine affect you?
Shoots sub moa with the precision eldx. The outfitter with the cx I can’t get tighter than an inch and a half group. I bought the 3 round magazine and hope it’s alot better than that huge 5 round. I will update when it comes in. Sorry for the typo. So far the 5 round isn’t that bad. Depends on the shooter.
So the 3rd magazine just came in and it’s just over 1 1/4 inch shorter. Looks like it’s much better
300 win mag is my most favorite bang
Nice groups. Bergara makes a nice rifle for the money.
Absolutely
If I remember correctly couple days ago the Howa 300 had better groups? Same ammo?
I have seen guys use ratchet straps to hold the Lead Sled in place so it does not move just a thought. Thinking about getting a lead sled myself
Pretty good shooting as usual. Good luck 🍀 out wherever you’re going to chase mule deer 🦌. This rifle in 7mm PRC is one of my dream rifles and very high (Top 3 maybe 🤔) on the list of sub 2k rifles. I was going to say sub $1700 rifles but I wanted to include the Seekins Havok PH2 as well. Perhaps 🤔 you could be so kind and respectfully request to Mr Traveling Hunter himself to send me one of these in 7mm PRC for long term testing? Just kidding kind of, but that would be awesome 😎. The only thing I don’t like is the extended magazine which sucks to carry in one hand under the action. Plus it currently isn’t available in left hand. Hopefully 🤞🏻 sooner than later.
🤣🤣🤣 traveling hunter is a good friend of mine
@@WHOTEEWHO yes I know I remember him in a video or two of yours. Plus he is a Tennessee guy too. 😎🇺🇸
Got b14 hmr in 300 winmag nice rifle topped with sig 5x24x50
Awesome
SLINGING THE BULL-LOTS!
I'm interested in a Bergara 7 PRC...but which one???
Hootie, get you a roll-up boonie hat for the range. Blocks the sun and doesn't get in the way.
Lots of potential for super accuracy for that rifle.
I have one in 6.5prc. Had mag issues I had to adjust. Really wanting to see more accuracy testing videos on this rifle. The 7prc interests me but the magazine is HUGE… can’t understand why the 6.5 is sold with a 3 round mag, but the 7 is a 5 round.. but in a hunting platform man it looks super bulky.
Stay tuned
What mag issues ? I just picked one up in 6.5 prc and I hear the spring vibrating it drives me nuts lol
@@JD-pp5gi wouldn’t eject properly because the round being ejected would hang on the next round and also wouldn’t feed properly. I had to bend the lips to hold the rounds slightly lower and tilted in the mag to cycle properly
@@Sirlants_alot My new Remington SPS Stainless .270 has the same loading problems, mainly with 150 grain bullets. The bullet is just dragging a little and hanging for a second. Someone mentioned it could be the feeding lips need polished or something? I am really shocked this is happening with a new rifle in todays world. Non of my old 700`s had any problems. they were all 1995 and before though. I think the new owners of Remington firearms are just as bad as the Freedon group, but in some ways worse. They changed the BDL stock to more of the CDL stock and my SPS Stainless has blued swivel studs, bolt head and follower spring. Why on god`s green earth would someone put blued parts on an all weather stainless firearm? This is my last Remington for sure. I`ve lost all faith in the new owners already.
@@currituckI have four new 700’s. I had a 5th, but sold it because the action wasn’t fitting well enough into the stock. Before giving up, try loosening both action screws and retightening. Tighten the top one first fairly tight and the bottom one next. However, don’t over tighten the bottom one as much. I use an Elkind T-style 5/32 Allen wrench. If the lower screw is too tight, you will temporarily bend the action causing feeding problems. You can tell because the bolt doesn’t slide as smoothly. Then try and see how it feeds. Let us know how you make out.
Just watched this and the Howa video prior to it. Looks like Howa > Begara. Which one you taking on your deer hunt????
I took the howa
I want it in 7 PRC!
I’ve always read and heard of you have a 300win with 22in barrel all you have is a louder harder kicking 30-06 because the barrel isn’t long enough to get all the power burned but a nice rifle though
You heard and read wrong
I keep yelling at the TV, screw down that Caldwell riser tension knob!!! All joking aside I enjoy your content watching you sling boolots!
Flush cups
long action, expandable to 6.5 prc and 300 prc since that's a mag bolt, does that support CIP mags 3.890 for those long bullets
I dunno
Please retest the CVA Scout break barrel on the New Sled. I believe that Pew Pew is the Best bang for the Bucks ;)
Not too shabby for factory ammo!!!!
You're getting all fancy: a step up in quality of rifles and what the heck, no more paper plates. LOL
Now that’s putting em in there !!! I’d like to see that dude at 300 yds , Hint Hint 🤔
Stay tuned
Those shoot better than us
👍😊 well if that bullet is good for your hunting your golden.
Just purchased this rifle in 7 PRC
Nice!
You need a roof on your bench to give you some shade! 👍
How about some 220 grain for Elk
I request a 200 and 300 yard shot group video with this rifle!
Stay tuned
Why do all the Bergara guns have those huge clips . I don’t like the look of them and I’d assume it would make the gun annoying to carry in the woods .I’d buy one but that’s the only thing I don’t like. Is there a reason the clip hangs down so far?
LOL, the scope is in mils, he was adjusting as if it was an MOA scope - 4 clicks per inch at 100, or 0.25 inches per click He adjusted 6 clicks down when it was hitting 1-1/2 inches high, which would have been correct for a MOA scope. He also adjusted 5 clicks left when it was hitting 1-1/4" right, which would have been correct for an MOA scope. A click of 0.1 mil at 100 yards is equal to 0.36". Thats why his point of aim was never on target. Doesn't affect the group size, only the sight-in. It appears his scope's vertical adjustment is not particualrly accurate, but the windage seemed accurate for mil adjustment. The 5 clicks left moved the impact point about 1.8 inches left. If he is hunting long distance, it is imperative to differentiate between 1/4 MOA clicks and 0.1 mil clicks.
@WHOTEEWHO What would you recommend a Bergara or a Tikka roughtech thinking about a 30/06 or would you recommend something different. For about $1200. Thanks in advance.
Never tried the tikka so I really can't say
@@WHOTEEWHO Well appreciate your honesty. Wish more guns came with iron sights though.
Try it again with different ammo
Is the buttstock symmetrical? I am lefty, while I do not mind the bold being on the right side, I hate when the grip and buttstock are made for the right handed person. I will appreciate if you can tell me that.
Not sure on that one
👍
Cant hunt in my state with rifle...but i def have considered using that caliber in a AR10 style rifle Because.. well Why not ? 😂
Did you say it comes with a 22” Barrel for the 300 Win Mag ?
Yes
I know my 300win likes the heavier bullets between 180 and 190 the best
B14 300🎉WIN MAGGOT! HUXWRX 762 TI 180 grain. Never shot it. No scope yet.
How is the balance of that bergara? Is it front heavy or is it weighted pretty even?
Honestly didn't pay much attention to that. I never do 🤣. But didn't notice anything off balance
@@WHOTEEWHO right on, thanks for the review, good shooting.
Did you do the barrel break in ?
No. I never do
barrel break in is for customers. I think it was a Bergera rep that the only reason it exists because customers want to know a break in procedure.
Twenty or so years ago.. I believed in the barrel break in method.. but nowadays I believe that two to three boxes of ammo down the bore bring out the best in the rifle! I've not noticed a difference in either method 😊 If you got a shooter.. you got a shooter! Which most rifles out shoot the person behind the trigger.. in my opinion! Rifles made nowadays are capable of MOA with several different brands of factory ammo! That's a great thing 😊 Now.. cleaning your rifle is still necessary.. especially if you are hunting in cold weather and wet conditions! I always bring my rifle inside and put it in a corner by a heat source.. once it's dry I wipe it down! Inside and outside! Haven't seen any issues along the way 😊
It is recommended in the owners manual. I did it and noticed very little copper in the barrel when cleaning. My rifle had shooting better every time I shoot it. 🤷🏼♂️
What’s better this or the weatherby 307. Which one u like better
Shewee. That's a hard pick. 🤔🤔🤔 both very nice
@@WHOTEEWHO I was hoping you would make my mind up on which to buy haha. I assume either would be fine
Looks like heavy metal is about due for a new pic nick table to model those bing bangs off on!!!
RoaR
Roar
👍👍
👍👍
My 300 wb is to hard on my shoulders
Can you please tell me your opinion on the crest compared to the mountain 2.0. Also do you have an opinion on the cure carbon barrels? I ordered a mt 2.0, came in damaged and distributor cant find me a replacement since its discontinued. Im now looking at the crest carbon ... thoughts from anyone?
I've never tried the mtn 2.0
@@WHOTEEWHO understood, have you tried a carbon cure barrel on any other models? Or have any insight on them?
@@evancastner8127 I have tried the cure, but not the carbon cure. It did good for me
Do you have any videos with tikkas?
Nope. Not yet
Bergara vs Tikka? Which one do you prefer
Never tried a tikka
I don’t own a bolt rifle yet. Too poor. Only gas/semi autos. When I can save up it will be a Begara B14 HMR 300 win mag with that sweet 1:9.3 twist and aics mag
i cheat i shoot from inside of my pole barn where i have a 60 gallon air compressor i take the air gun blow down my barrel and it cools them off fast , have you ever tried a magnetospeed barrel cooler ?
Never tried it
Oh that guy? Don't worry about that Ilittle guy. 😅
