Anybody here on the GS have one or spent time behind one and have a review or decent input on them? From what I have read and seen in videos they seem to be a pretty stinking good factory rifle.

Know some guys on another forum that have one and are happy with them. One of those is a guy that buys a lot of rifles, tries them out and keeps the ones he likes and sells the rest. So far he has kept his Bregara. Let me know if you want the link. Not sure about linking that forum here in the open forum.

I have handled a few in the process of deciding on ordering one. I kept searching for a wood stocked gun to lay my hands on. Handled several synthetic verdions. Actions and triggers felt good. I rolled the dice and order a woodsman in 7 Rem mag yesterday myself, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Went and handled a few coopers and just couldn't make myself pull the trigger.

I have shot two B-14s, one 6.5 and one in .308. Both handled and shot well. The rifles grouped very good with factory ammo at the price point.
I do own a Bergara LRP Elite and you can certainly tell where the cost savings comes from when handling and shooting both. Those same observations apply to the others as well Savage, Ruger etc.
The stock on the lower priced Bergaras feel ok, but you will notice they do not feed as smooth from the mag and the actions are not in the same class. Again, kind of the same drawbacks I have noticed with most in the price range. The trigger was ok but I would give both the savage and the Ruger the nod for trigger in that market.
You cannot go wrong with the B-14 as long as you are not expecting it to be of way better quality than the others in the same price range.
