Hi all, as above. I'm keen to buy a Bergara barrelled action to drop into a chassis, but haven't seen them available on any RFD sites.
Does anyone know if they sell barrelled actions in the UK?
Cheers!

The internet would seem to be the most likely source for an answer, rather than here.
Have you checked the obvious route? . . . :rolleyes:

Thanks for that input. Sorry if my question bothered you.

I have looked and they're not listed as just barrelled actions but thought it was worth asking around on here if anyone had seen them sold as such.
 
That sounds very much like rifle snobbery :rofl:
They are what a Remington 700 should have been.

I have to agree with this speaking as someone who owns a b14 it does everything I want very accurate mine was under £500 brand new I’ve heard of rust issues with the blueing poor quality steel I don’t see any of that maybe some people need to look after their kit a bit better.
 
Having had a few apart and seen how well they’re put together I like a few other rifle smiths will not work on them

There is plenty of evidence of poor quality of components on line if you care to look

Failed bottom metal
Shrouds not threaded properly that pop off when the weapon is fired
Questionable barrel quality
Failed firing pins
Rimfires that simply don’t group etc etc etc


Yes I’m sure that other manufacturers have had their issues

Far from snobbery on my part - they are after all, (apparently) a premium brand,,,,,,

Where do you get the idea that they are a premium brand?
Go on Guntrader and look at the prices for new Bergara B14 HMR in 6.5 creedmor compared to a Tikka T3X Supervarmint and the Bergara is about £200 cheaper than the Tikka and nobody says Tikka is "premium" brand.

If one conducts a simple search there are many other reported issues that are common, recent and not being addressed

I mentioned they are a “premier brand” as I understand some of their models are called premium or similar - yet use the same base action for all models - go figure ,,,,,,
