Bergara b14r

Impressed and kudos. Sometimes it’s better to take matters into your own hands. You can be sure about quality control when your the manufacturer. I agree with Jerry onto your idea holding endless possibilities. Maybe you should patent ur great idea.
 
I made the second one. If you look close it is 3d printed to hold a metal mag in the correct position

Well done sir. If the factory mags start breaking for many customers, you may be able to sell a bunch of those.
 
Just got my B14R this morning. Nice, well made & solid unit. Can't wait to get this bugger out to the range. :d

Always wondered what something like this costs to make on a 3D printer?

About 2-3$ in material I'd guess

These are printed in PETG, strength and layer adhesion is excellent. Successfully printed a Savage 64 mag adapter. These are printed with a .3 layer height for speed so the layers stand out but don't affect function or fit. Angled mags are difficult to get right since it angles through a small opening in the receiver. The Marlin mags should be much easier. No "detail" or fine features since the steel mag takes care of the feed lips so expect they will last indefinitely. The Savage is a friction fit but I added a hole for a set screw as well. It's not needed

Me wee beasty be near ready for range work now. I installed my Nikon Monarch 4-16x on 'er along with me Harris bipod. Just have to tweek the trigger down a tad to my usual preference. Porky little machines these be, but they sure set nice in a gopher field. Little furry buggers beware. Plopping 4" steel discs at 200 yds from the bench shall be fun as well. :)

Look really good, good on you for making these as an option from the $70 factory mags
 
Can I buy one of those bore guides from you I have a bergara b14 r now can not find one to fit it
TKX Roy Coughler

Not positive but pretty sure a guide from a Rem 40x will work. Its what they use in the Vudoo V22. Just has the bootom cut back like the ones for some Annies cuz of the ejector. I have one you can try before buying one to make sure it will work! All you have to do is figure out who I am and that shouldn't be hard. Hint- ASK GORD
 
I got out today with my one & the bugger definitely want's to shoot. I shot a ragged hole at 20 yds then went straight to the 80 yd target to get a half-assed dial in.
The ammo used was Blazers which all of my CZ's seem to like as far as shootin' on a budget goes. I shot from our club's piss poor benches that, though they be sturdy, they fail huge on deck & seat height in relation to the target pits. :mad: At least the air coming straight on towards me was mild. None the less, I did manage a gopher knocker grouping even whilst doing a half stand, sitting on me right leg crunched up under me arse & the fore of rifle sitting on me Harris bipod.
f:P:

The rifle itself is a well built & finished unit that runs smooth with the supplied mag, though I only loaded 5 rounds at a time in 'er each time. I'll be swapping
out the Harris bipod fer an M-POD unit pretty soon as the Harris unit be much too wiggly for a beasty of this heft. Trigger not bad outta the box, but I'll do
some trigger pull adjustment to get the feel better.

The holes at the bottom of the paper were from a couple of shots with Aguila 60 gr rounds. These boolits would best be served with a 1 in 12 twist I reckon.:rolleyes:

She be a nice rifle for my purposes & that be all that matters to me. :)
