Has anybody had a problem with a B14 Timber ? Has anybody had any success with Bergara customer service in Lawrenceville ? I bought a B14 in 2017. Very accurate rifle. I've killed 12 deer and a hog with it. In Nov I got in the stand with it and felt the barrel rattle in the stock. There are two action screws. One was missing and the other was about to fall out. If I had shot the rifle, the barrel would have left the stock via my head. I put a screw in it with a thicker head(only thing available local), bevelled the bottom of the head same as original. Fired one shot and screw came loose. Reinstalled with blue loktite, torqued, fired one shot. Screw came loose. Tried to call Bergara. No one would answer. Recording said to try later. Sent two emails to support. No reply. This rifle msrp is $900. And every shot loosens actions screws. BS. The title should be Bergara problem. Spell check screwed up and website won't let me edit the title. Edited. Thanks shootsacanon.

Not good OP in for resolution
Call Bergara asap.
Lawrenceville ain't far. Go there.
Where is your place?
Yes to all the questions. I guessed to 55 in lb torque. I only have ft lb torque wrenches. They start at 10 ft lbs.
Nobody answers. Recording says try later.
I cant help with the gun, but ill leave this here. Its a Mac Tool Knock-off and works great.
