Description
The Bergara Wilderness Sierra 30-06 is a Wilderness Series bolt-action rifle chambered in .30-06 Springfield that combines a classic sporter profile with an adjustable comb. This configuration (Bergara model B14L801, UPC 043125017508) pairs a 22-inch fluted barrel with an Omni muzzle brake, a Sniper Gray Cerakote action and a woodland camo stock. It weighs about 7.6 pounds.
Bergara Wilderness Sierra 30-06 Overview
Bergara designed the Sierra for hunters who like the traditional sporter feel of the Ridge but want more adjustability. The Bergara Wilderness Sierra 30-06 adds a height-adjustable cheek rest so you can raise your cheek to line up perfectly behind a scope, a must for precise shots at distance. Like every Wilderness rifle, it carries a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee with quality factory ammunition.
Adjustable Comb and Sporter Stock
The comb adjusts with a single flush Allen screw on the side of the stock, so there are no knobs to snag on brush or packs. A slightly more vertical grip than older sporter stocks gives a comfortable, consistent hold, and quarter-inch spacers let you fine-tune length of pull. The camo finish blends into timber and stays grippy in wet weather.
Fluted Barrel With Omni Muzzle Brake
The Bergara barrel is deep-fluted in a No. 5 taper to cut weight and help it cool faster, and it wears Sniper Gray Cerakote for corrosion resistance. The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24 and ships with the Omni brake, which noticeably softens recoil so you can see your shot connect. Remove the brake and the same threads accept a suppressor.
The Proven .30-06 Springfield
Few cartridges have taken more North American game than the .30-06 Springfield. It handles bullets from 150 to 180 grains with ease, hits hard enough for elk and moose, and is available at nearly every sporting goods counter in the country. The 1:10 twist in this barrel stabilizes the full range of common hunting loads, and the brake makes the round pleasant to shoot through a long practice session.
Smooth B-14 Action
The B-14 action runs a two-lug bolt with a sliding plate extractor and a coned bolt nose and breech for smooth feeding and extraction. The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard Remington 700 long-action bases, and the hinged floorplate magazine makes unloading at the end of the day quick and safe.
Care and Setup Tips
Mount a quality 3-15x or 4-16x scope with solid rings, set the comb so your eye centers on the scope without lifting your head, then zero at 100 yards. Record drops at several distances with the load you plan to hunt with, and practice from sitting, kneeling and off shooting sticks. After a wet hunt, wipe the rifle down, run a dry patch through the bore and let it air out of the case overnight.
In the Field
At well under 8 pounds before optics, this rifle carries comfortably on a sling through long days of still-hunting or a steep climb to a glassing knob. The sporter profile slides easily in and out of a truck gun case or a saddle scabbard, and the Cerakote finish shrugs off rain, sleet and the scuffs that come with tree stands and ground blinds. It is equally at home on a Pennsylvania whitetail opener, a western mule deer hunt or a black bear bait site.
