Description
The Bergara Stoke Compact 300 Blackout is a compact bolt-action rifle chambered in .300 AAC Blackout and built from the ground up for smaller-framed shooters. This configuration (Bergara model B14S9511, UPC 043125017447) pairs a 16.5-inch threaded barrel with a sporter-style synthetic stock, a 12.25-inch length of pull and a AICS-style detachable magazine, and it weighs about 6.0 pounds.
Bergara Stoke Compact 300 Blackout Overview
Plenty of youth rifles simply chop an inch off the stock. Bergara went much further with the Stoke, shortening the fore-end, refining the grip and adding a raised comb with a negative angle that pulls the stock away from your cheek under recoil. The Bergara Stoke Compact 300 Blackout balances naturally for teens, women and anyone with a shorter reach, and it carries Bergara’s sub-MOA accuracy guarantee with quality factory ammunition.
Compact Stock With 12.25-Inch Length of Pull
A 12.25-inch length of pull is one of the shortest in the centerfire bolt-action market. Quarter-inch spacers are included, so the rifle can grow with a young hunter for years instead of being outgrown in a season or two. The raised comb lines your eye up with the scope without craning your neck, and the gray speckled finish gives a secure grip in rain and cold.
Threaded Barrel and Smooth B-14 Action
The Graphite Black Cerakote barrel is 4140 chrome-moly steel in a No. 4.5 taper, threaded 5/8×24 for a muzzle brake or suppressor, with a 1:8 twist. The B-14 action runs a two-lug bolt with a sliding extractor and a coned bolt nose for smooth feeding, and the receiver is drilled and tapped for standard short-action scope bases.
Quiet, Versatile .300 Blackout
The .300 AAC Blackout was designed to run both supersonic and subsonic loads, and it shines with a suppressor. Supersonic 110 to 125 grain hunting loads work well on deer and hogs at close to moderate range, while heavy subsonic loads are remarkably quiet behind a can. The 1:8 twist stabilizes both, and the 16.5-inch special purpose barrel keeps the rifle short and handy.
Tips for New Shooters
Start at the bench with a solid rest and a light, accurate load, then move to sitting and kneeling positions once the basics feel natural. Hearing and eye protection make a big difference in how much a new shooter enjoys practice. A quality 3-9x or 2-7x scope with good eye relief and a comfortable sling round out a great first hunting setup.
Care and Maintenance
Cerakote and a synthetic stock make this rifle easy to care for. After a wet hunt, wipe it down, run a dry patch through the bore and let it air out of the case overnight. Clean the barrel every few hundred rounds, keep a light coat of oil on the bolt lugs and check the action screws and scope mounts before each season.

Before You Buy
The short stock is designed for smaller shooters; taller adults may find it cramped even with the spacers installed. No scope, base, rings or muzzle device is included, and the thread protector should stay on whenever a brake or suppressor is not mounted. Suppressors are regulated items that require separate paperwork and approval. The .300 Blackout is a short-range cartridge, so keep shots at sensible hunting distances.
Who It Is For
The Bergara Stoke Compact 300 Blackout is a great fit for young hunters, smaller-framed adults and suppressor owners who want a short, quiet, low-recoil rifle for deer, hogs and close-range hunting from blinds and stands.
