Bergara B-14R Trainer .22 LR 18" Rimfire Rifle

The Bergara B-14R Trainer: Precision Rimfire Excellence

The Bergara B-14R represents a thoughtful answer to competitive shooters and precision enthusiasts seeking a dedicated .22 Long Rifle training platform. Built on the proven Remington 700 action footprint, this rifle delivers the ergonomics and handling characteristics shooters already know from their centerfire rifles—but optimized specifically for rimfire competition and practice.

Design and Platform

Bergara engineered the B-14R to function as a true full-size rifle while maintaining compatibility with Remington 700 stocks, bases, and triggers. This design philosophy means your existing centerfire accessories work seamlessly. The magazine system uses a single-stack AICS-pattern design that fits standard short-action magazine dimensions, ensuring reliability and familiarity.
