Meet the New Ultra-Lightweight Bergara B-14 Squared Crest Rifle

When it comes to backcountry hunting, few specifications are as important as how light your rifle is. Since you don’t want to be lugging around a bunch of unnecessary weight a lot of modern rifle producers have focused heavily on not only providing hardcore backcountry hunters with lightweight rifles but ones that also feature superior weather resistance, chamberings suited for big game hunting, and of course a modern appearance using some of the worlds most advanced materials for firearms. Bergara’s new B-14 Squared Crest rifle is one such rifle and features all of the aspects listed above but comes in at a price that makes it an attractive option even for those who may not be as heavily invested in the backcountry hunting scene.
