At the heart of the Bergara B14 Squared Crest Carbon is its 100% carbon fiber stock. This carbon stock was produced using CF-RTM technology which is a state-of-the-art method that is widely revered in the automotive and aerospace industries.

CF-RTM involves assembling dry carbon fibers by hand and injecting resin. The incorporation of a carbon spine throughout the stock ensures unparalleled rigidity and strength, making it the top choice for those who demand the best in carbon stocks.

The rifle features the Bergara B-14 action, a two-bolt system with a sliding extractor and a tapered bolt and breech stop.

Engineered to guarantee smooth cartridge insertion and extraction, the action is finished with a Sniper Grey Cerakote to complement the barrel. The flute-plating not only enhances its appearance but also reduces overall weight, ensuring a reliable shooting experience.
