    My Bergara B14-R Pic

    Love the paint, that matches my Manners stock. I would love to paint my B14R like that.

    Vudoo with CCI SV ??

    Isn't all gas unleaded? I think you meant low octane. I think the point is you don't have to shoot center x at 25 and 50 yards when the CCI SV will shoot all most as well for a lot cheaper. It becomes apparent the farther you go that the CCI is lacking compared to the others but there is...

    Any chance we could get a sticky thread on the Bergara B-14R?

    Just curious if it was the old wolf match or the new stuff? The new is in a plastic box. I have the B14R steel I bought the first of last year and have a 5-25 Strike Eagle on it. I put in a Timney 2 stage trigger and had to modify the stock and bottom metal. So check anytime to change one out...

    Vudoo with CCI SV ??

    Here are my results. I will say that at 100 and beyond the CCI doesn't hang in there with the match ammo from my experience, I try to use it for up close or plinking steel only.

    Vudoo with CCI SV ??

    I have a B14R and have had issues extracting live rounds with both CCI and SK rifle Match. I don't know what chamber Bergara uses but it is tighter than the 10/22, Marlin model 60, and Savage FVSR that I have and shoot. Having said that, the Bergara is the first experience I have with "match"...

    which scope for my Bergara 14R

    Parallax ruins that one tho for me, I like rimfire to have be able to focus at a minimum of 25 yards.

    To Torque or Not to Torque?

    I like a similar method of using 50 ftlbs, then drill and pin the receiver to barrel, after that you weld over the pin to ensure it stays put.

    To Torque or Not to Torque?

    Don't they use a threadlocker?

    Prefit in 6 CM & throating ?

    I can say that the 108 ELD and the 107 SMK are fine running in the . 183" Sammi. I can get the coal of loaded rounds for you when I get home if you'd like. However getting to the lands with the 110 SMK with that chamber doesn't leave much of the bullet in the neck. Maybe build it for what you...

    To Torque or Not to Torque?

    That's definitely odd then, most guys use 35 to 50 ft lbs on savage barrel nuts.

    To Torque or Not to Torque?

    Probably had to do more with not having a good shoulder square to threads or the nut may have had some thread to shoulder issue in my opinion. Was it on a untrue factory receiver by chance?

    To Torque or Not to Torque?

    It's where you go all the way against the shoulder, back it off just a little, and quickly twist it back tight allowing momentum to give it a little extra torque. That's how I put my can on my rifle so I don't have to worry about checking to see if it's coming loose.

    To Torque or Not to Torque?

    I use 50 ft lbs with a torque wrench. I have heard of benchrest guys going hand tight, but they shoulder it up then back it off to snap it on I think. From what I understand this requires a barrel vise and wrench to remove still.

    Lugs galling

    Never use dielectric grease for a lube, it is primarily silicone and is a poor lubricant and will coat while still allowing metal to gall. I have experienced this on a Glock 19 I polished then applied it on, then again on a Tikka bolt shroud. I have since attributed them to the dielectric grease...

    Prefit in 6 CM & throating ?

    Sammi is .183 and works well with the 108ELDs but is pretty long for the 110SMK. Which is backwards of what you were told it seems from Northland. It helps to know what specific bullet you want to use to help decide your throat.

    Fairly new SS .900 barrel pitting.....?

    Good to know, it doesnt seem to affect anything in my rifle so I wasn't really worried about it.

    Fairly new SS .900 barrel pitting.....?

    The 6 creedmoor cut rifled barrel I have shoots great and would have never looked in it if not to compare it to the 6.5 creedmoor I was having accuracy issues with. Both are different barrel makers, both top tier. Again both cut rifled, both have what looks like small amounts of pitting near...
