Notes
The Ridge is the value-priced entry point of Bergara's B-14 series, sharing the same barrel-making expertise as the company's premium rifles. Short-barrel (18 in) configurations are offered in .308 Win, 6.5 Creedmoor and .223 Rem.
Background
Bergara began as a barrel maker in the Basque town of Bergara, Spain, supplying premium blanks to other rifle brands before launching its own complete rifles; the B-14 series brought that barrel pedigree to an affordable hunting platform.
