Nice, I have 45000 rounds through mine in 3 years and still going strong and shooting great!! I have had to stake the ejector at about 40K rounds and mag springs are getting weak but other than that its been a great rifle but have done a ton of mods so some mag feeding issues with the chassis but in the factory config works flawlessly. Did bolt work, new trigger and other than that a stock gun that shoots sub MOA all the time!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it!
@@guerrierweg yeah I took a long time off work so I was shooting about every day for about 18 months, talk about putting a big dent in your ammo stash lol
Yeah, I’d love to add a .223 HMR to the stable but there are some restrictions and extra hoops a distributor needs to jump through to be able to import them from Spain, owing to the 5.56 being considered a military round. I think they’d be very popular in the U.K.
That’s the XLR Envy Pro with C-6 butt stock, full weight kit, night vision bridge and extended Arca rail. We are looking for a bag rider still as they didn’t have the stock in the U.K. at the time.
Bergara already make .223s. There is the BA13, which is widely available to the International market and also various versions of the B14, which are not widely available. The B14 versions are not widely available because, in Spain, where the rifles are manufactured, there are restrictions on export of what are classed as NATO military calibres. To export a 223 additional permits are required from the importer, so it’s really dependent on each country’s distributor to have the relevant authorisation in place. Some countries, such as Germany, have .223 Bergara’s in country now.
A tip, KRG makes an adjustable butt piece for their stocks that also fits B14 bergaras so you can cant the recoil pad side to side/ up down.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll check that out 👍

Wow! That’s some round count! Great to hear it’s doing well after so many 👏

@@Picit-13 I’m permitted to only carry 2000 rounds at a time. I’d have been down the gun shop constantly topping up!
Once ive got a .223, a .22lr will definitely be next!
Shame theres no B14 .223s 😕

@@guerrierweg I didn't even know they actually had one in Spain!
A .223 HMR would be ideal for Foxing!
what's the make/model of the black chassis on the top of the wall behind you?

@@guerrierweg Greatly appreciated!
will bergara ever make a 223

I really need to join the b14r club.
I’m certain you wouldn’t be disappointed! All the cool kids are in it 😎👍
