Bergara B-14 HMR Bolt-Action Rifle - .308 Win - 20" - Left Hand - Graphite Black Cerakote - 5
Overview
The Bergara B-14 HMR in .308 Winchester is a left-hand bolt-action precision/hunting rifle built around Bergara’s proven barrel and action platform. With a 20-inch #6-contour 4140 chromoly Bergara barrel, a two-lug bolt with a Sako-style extractor, and a rugged HMR composite stock finished in Graphite Black Cerakote, this rifle balances compact handling with long-range accuracy. It ships with a detachable 5-round box magazine and is aimed at left-handed hunters and precision shooters who want a purpose-built .308 that is tough in the field, easy to carry through brush, and accurate enough for ethical game and mid-range target work. Ideal when left-hand ergonomics and a compact barrel length matter without sacrificing precision.
