Bergara combines a nimble, sporter-style stock with a precision, No. 5 contour barrel in the B-14 Ridge. Like all B-14 rifles, which are made at the Bergara factory in Spain, the action in the Ridge has a two-lug bolt with a sliding-plate extractor and a coned nose for smooth feeding. The Ridge also has a hinged floorplate and a trigger with a pull weight that's set at the factory for about 3 pounds. The 4140 chro-moly steel barrel, also made by Bergara and featuring a honed bore, is threaded to accept a suppressor. The barreled action is pillar-bedded in the synthetic stock, which has a SoftTouch coating to improve handling. The B-14 Ridge is offered in .22-250 Rem., .243 Win., 6.5 Creedmoor, .270 Win., .30-06 Sprg., 7mm Rem. Mag. and .300 Win. Mag., all with a 24-inch barrel, and .308 Win. with a 22-inch barrel. Weight is 7.9 pounds with the shorter barrel and 8.1 pounds with the longer one. MSRP: $865.

5 Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me Before My First Elk Hunt

I grew up hunting whitetails in the Midwest, and while I thought I was in “elk shape” on my first western hunt, I quickly learned that chasing elk at high elevation requires an entirely different level of fitness. You’ll likely hike for hours, oftentimes at high elevation, and many of trails you’ll follow are filled with deadfall and uneven rocks. If you’re fortunate enough to fill your tag, the real work starts.
