Can some one explain the differences between the B-14R barreled action for $780

The b14r is a true Remington 700 clone that uses aics pattern magazines.

The BMR is is a mini action and uses smaller magazines.

I do believe the bmr uses any Remington 700 aftermarket triggers though.

The B14R is a Remington 700 40X clone, the full gun comes with fully adjustable stock at around $1000. I have 2 B14R myself. The BMR is a lighter action and stock, both guns take a 700 after market triggers. Get the steel version in either one. The carbon is a tube over a thin barrel.
thanks for yalls input all things being equal the B-14r should have the edge accuracy wise ?? and why, thanks again for the input.
Also you can find BMR’s priced at $450
And still....... It's day and night between the 2 but do like them both. Depends on what you want to the rifle to do will dictate which to get first but you will eventually end up getting both.

I think the difference is more about the form factor than accuracy, but I only own the BMR so someone with both can answer that question. As 22 Wanderer said, it depends on what you want it for. In my case I wanted to try a really light but accurate rifle, so I chose the BMR. If I was looking for a trainer that felt like my center fire rifles I would buy the B-14.

I use my B14r for PRS while the BMR's for hunting and through the woods target shooting. No way would I take my B14r in the woods carrying as 14lbs is not ideal. They are not overly expensive so get both of them.:D(y)

Accuracy edge will definitely be the B14r being much heavier over the BMR. Why?? Reason being a heavier rifle will have more stability.

My b14R is sub Moa all day long with SK rifle match
My b14R is sub Moa all day long with SK rifle match
@ 50 yards or 100 yards?
The last time I was out shooting the B14r I can consistently put 10rds @100 yard. Bergara make great rifles for less money.
I owned a BMR and currently own a B14r, both steel versions. I've been pleased with accuracy out of both. I like the weight of the b14r shooting on the bench. My pickup truck analogy:
BMR = ranger
B14r= F350
