Thanks Darron. Staked my ejector and no matter how clumsily I pull the bolt back every round ejected.

Thank you. Just got my b14r and will probably just be proactive with ejection staking. Keep up the videos.

You’re awesome! Thank you so much! This is much appreciated!

Great video man , thanks

Great video I just grabbed a heavy barreled action, going to do this when It comes in!

Thank you very much! Subbed

Great video. This made it easy. Thank you. Any idea of the extractor roll pins diameter? I’ve tied 5/64 and 3/32 with no success.

Great video will save this when I need to service my bolt. Just bought this rifle yesterday and wondering if you know of a safe way to de cock the bolt to take tension off of the spring if storing the bolt out of the rifle. Is this possible?

Ask and you will receive........ I just asked about this very topic yesterday. Thanks

Thanks again for the detail you go into - really helps us new owners just getting into the B14R. Have you done anything with the stock trigger to make it better or do you replace it for competition?

Awesome - Thank you! Have you ever had a broken firing pin or spring? ( 11:52 ) Do you dry fire with the B14R?

Just shot my first 100 round on mine. No failure to eject issues but massive failure to feed issues last 5 rounds of all types of ammo never the first 5 rounds... any thoughts?

I tried staking mine and ended up with it making contact with the bolt once I reassembled everything. When I say making contact, I'm not talking about a light rub... it was literally jamming the bolt to the point where it was extremely hard to move. Do you know of any other way to shim or pin the thing in place? Thanks!

Hey man, I run a B-14 for PRS and want to build an NRL22 rig cuz.. ammo costs. I also want to use it to run some local fun 22lr competitions but they are timed more so than the longer range stuff. How quick do you think you can run the bolt accurately on a b14r and shoot 5 targets (2-5") from 15 yards to 25 yards - with lots of practice? Think I could get away with running the bolt quickish 20-40 seconds depending on range - or should I just buy a semi and build my NRL rig completely seperate... it might be nice to get some practice standing and running the bolt quick at short range matches maybe?

Thanks👍

If you stake it and have to replace the ejector or the springs are you able to?

Thanks!

I'm a little late commenting on this video. I especially appreciate the bolt disassembly part. My B-14R is relatively new and I haven't had any ejection issues so far. Does staking the ejector yourself void the warranty? I'm not a qualified gunsmith or blacksmith so I would probably send to Bergara for repair. What do they do to fix the problem? Hopefully, they replace the ejector with a properly sized one rather than messing up the finish on the receiver.

My ejection issue is the 4th or 5th round the casing doesn’t get pulled out and remains in the barrel breach. The paws on the bolt aren’t grabbing the case rim. Any suggestions? Thanks. Oh and the gun has run flawlessly thru thousands of rounds until now. I notice the spring tension on one paw is much lighter than the other side. Which I believe is normal.

In your opinion, how necessary is the shim kits? Does it vary from rifle to rifle, or could they all be improved with the shims?

What is the best bore guide and cleaning rod for cleaning these? The extractor is in the way and rubs the cleaning rod and scuffed the coating on my rod.

My bolt on my b14r closes hard when loading a round in the chamber. Do you know a way to make it easier? Does the shim kit that you mentioned help with the hard bolt closing.

FWIW, I staked mine and still had a little movement. ( Maybe I just wasn't whacking it hard enough.) I ended up wiping a tiny bit of GOOP adhesive sealant into the gap between the rear of the ejector and receiver cutout. That seemed to do it nicely. It's firm but flexible and 100% reversible should i ever need to replace the ejector .

So is running the bolt on everyone’s rifle really rough, or clunky? I don’t know how to explain it the best but when running the bolt on mine between shots it’s really rough or hard to run the bolt, I’ve heard others complain about this with their B14R’s. I would be nice to be able to smooth this out a little and you could stay closer to on target between shots. Anyone have a fix?? PLEASE ITS VERY ANNOYING! My CZ 457 is buttery smooth! But otherwise I really like my BERGARA

Hi Darren just curious as to what your opinion of the trigger shims are and if they do indeed work. the other thing is what is the size of the roll pin you are taking out to disassemble the bolt?

Will this void the warranty? Because mine seems to have this problem and it happens way more often than I like. It happens the most on the last shot when the mag is empty. It is beginning to become super annoying.

I'm shooting CCI mini-mag .22lr in my Bergara B14R and when I get close to 100 shots the bolt won't even grip the spent cartridge to remove it from chamber. I thought it was because the match chamber heats up and expands plus all that excess wax on the cartridge stops the ejector from gripping the cartridge. When I start shooting everything is good until I get up around 80 shots and it gets really bad around 120 shots. Any idea whats wrong ? I'm new to shooting and just bought the rifle three weeks ago.

I’ve never had an issue with my B14r, until yesterday at a match. I had an empty case flip backwards an fall behind the mag. Will staking the ejector fix this?

What size roll pin? I know I need one before I even try cause I’m gonna lose it.

After 1100 rounds and smoothing out the bolt rotation, this rifle remains very difficult to activate the bolt. A little better with Lapua & SK, unbearable with Eley. Impossible to stay on target while activating bolt. This issue alone makes this riffle NOT fun to shoot. A real shame!!!! Worse yet is the fact that Bergara offers NO solution.

I buy a new rifle and I need to take center punch and hammer to it so it will eject the spent case. WHAT!!

It's the more I watch videos on the Bergara 22-caliber bolt action rifle; it is a rifle to stay away from. If the owners have to go through all that to the gun to operate, it ain't worth buying. Enter Ruger's RAR 22-CALIBER bolt action rifle. My cost $400.00, and a cheap box of CCI-SV ammo and off the range. The rifle functioned perfectly extracted ejected, and fired no problems at all. The only thing that I did change out the trigger spring ,liter pull weight. Sighted in then see, how it would group, well @50yRds cheap ammo group size five shots .55". Good enough for me! The money saved, it will allow me to buy better optics Tract or Vortex.

I'm not going to send $1000.00 for gun then I have to fix it. Thats bullsh*t

This is mind numbing I don't need your life story

What a shitty fix

People need to stop making videos like this..I staked a brand new gun and now the ejector is out of aliment and won't cleat the bolt..just leave the damn thing alone.
