Bergara B-14 Cima CF Carbon Fiber Rifle

The Bergara B-14 Cima CF carbon fiber rifle is a purpose-built sporter that sheds weight without sacrificing the mechanical precision you expect from a Bergara action. By pairing a carbon fiber barrel, a carbon fiber stock, and an SMC carbon mini-chassis, this rifle keeps the balance point tight and the total mass low—ideal for backcountry hunting or any scenario where every ounce matters. The spiral-fluted bolt and Bergara performance trigger deliver consistent lock time and a clean break, letting you focus on wind calls and elevation holds instead of fighting the gun.

Key Features

• CURE Carbon Fiber Barrel — Why it matters: Bergara’s proprietary CURE construction wraps a steel liner in carbon fiber, giving you the rigidity of a heavy contour barrel at a fraction of the weight. Expect consistent harmonics and faster heat dissipation on multi-shot strings.
• RTM Sporter Carbon Fiber Stock — Why it matters: The Resin Transfer Molded (RTM) stock is light, stiff, and shaped for offhand shooting. The fore-end tapers for a natural grip, and the buttpad reduces felt recoil without adding bulk.
• SMC Carbon Mini-Chassis — Why it matters: This internal chassis locks the action into a rigid bedding surface, improving repeatability when you torque the action screws. It also accepts AICS-pattern magazines, so you can run standard detachable boxes.
• Spiral-Fluted Bolt — Why it matters: Fluting reduces bolt mass and drag, making cycling smoother and faster. It also looks clean, but the real win is the reduced reciprocating weight that keeps the rifle balanced during follow-up shots.
• Bergara Performance Trigger — Why it matters: Adjustable from roughly 2.5 to 4 lbs, this trigger breaks clean with minimal overtravel. A predictable pull weight is critical for shooting groups that measure in fractions of MOA.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the hunter who also shoots paper at 600+ yards. If you’ve ever packed a steel-barreled rig up a mountain and wished it were lighter, the B-14 Cima CF solves that. It’s also for the precision-minded shooter who wants a lightweight platform that still holds zero and prints consistent groups. The carbon fiber construction doesn’t compromise barrel stiffness—Bergara claims sub-MOA accuracy with match ammunition, and I’ve seen it hold that promise.

Pros & Cons

• Pro: Sub-6-pound weight makes it easy to carry all day without fatigue.
• Pro: Bergara’s CURE barrel is proven to hold accuracy string after string.
• Pro: AICS magazine compatibility means you’re not locked into proprietary mags.
• Con: The sporter stock lacks an adjustable cheek riser, so shooters with high-mounted optics may need a cheek pad or aftermarket solution.
• Con: Carbon fiber barrels can be more sensitive to barrel torque than steel—check your action screw specs before final assembly.

FAQ

What action does the Bergara B-14 Cima CF use?

It uses Bergara’s B-14 action, which is a two-lug push-feed design with a 70° bolt lift. It’s compatible with AICS-pattern magazines and accepts standard Remington 700 footprint triggers and bases.

Is the CURE carbon fiber barrel accurate?

Yes. According to Bergara, the CURE barrel is guaranteed to shoot sub-MOA with match ammunition. The carbon fiber wrap stiffens the steel liner, reducing barrel whip and maintaining consistency as the barrel heats up.

Can I change the stock or chassis on this rifle?

The B-14 Cima CF uses a proprietary RTM carbon stock bonded to the SMC mini-chassis. You can swap the stock if you find one that fits the B-14 inlet, but aftermarket options are limited. Most shooters stick with the factory setup.

What calibers are available?

Common chamberings include .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .243 Winchester. Check the product page for current stock.

Does it come with a muzzle brake?

No, the barrel is threaded (5/8×24 on most calibers) but does not include a brake. You can add your own suppressor or brake.
