This week, we're taking a look at the B-14 R from Bergara. A high-end bolt-action rifle in .22 LR, the B-14 R is essentially a scaled-down version of the company's standard B-14, serving as an effective trainer for the larger-chambered platform. Even its 10-round single-stack magazine has the exact footprint of a standard, short-action, AICS-pattern magazine. Learn more about this soft-shooting rimfire in the video embedded above, hosted by Assistant Editor Connor McKibbin. MSRP: $1,150; bergara.com.
CVA is rolling out its new XP and XP‑SB Series, bringing updated ergonomics and enhanced adjustability to both its muzzleloader and single‑shot centerfire platforms.
