Help to choose the right action for you

BAT offers many action types and configurations. This page is to assist you with choosing the right action for the type of shooting you will be doing. Please select your intended use from the list below, and learn about specific BAT actions models for your shooting needs.

Our most popular models for short range BR are the B and the DS.

The SV is the smallest action and works for Hornet up to BR length cases.

The model B can handle 223-308 size cases and can be made with a hunter cut in the bottom and a dummy follower for use in Hunter Class.

The DS is the same footprint as the model B but has a smaller load port and shorter bolt throw, it also comes standard with a roller cocking piece and a second adjustable trigger hanger. This works best with PPC and BR size cases.

The 3L action has 60 degree bolt throw and works with 223-308 size cases.

The Neuvo action is built with horizontal lug lockup and is ideal for PPC and BR length cases.

This is all going to depend on caliber selection and the type of Varmint rifle you are after.

The SV is great for cases from Hornet to BR and make an excellent short to 500 yd type walking around rifle in a 8 to 12 lb rifle range.

The B, DS and 3L make a great action for cases based on 22-250 and up to 6MM Remington. These would be the great choices for rifles from 10 to 16 lbs and mostly shot off of a rest.

We make the VR action that can be ordered as a single shot.

The Igniter has a Remington 700 short action footprint and is our lowest cost action. This means that all bottom metal for Remington 700 SA will fit including all extended length boxes created for a short action. Most stocks will fit with either no or very minor inletting changes.

The VR action is also a 700 SA footprint, this is built with an integral picatinny rail and has several different box cut options.

To make the TR action we started with our VR and added a AW mag box opening and an adjustable trigger hanger along with other features desirable in the steel shooting competitions like PRS and NRL.

The Hammerhead action takes our VR footprint to a whole new level. A new AW mag box opening that is compatible with most AICS mags was implemented. A short 75 degree bolt lift was introduced to reduce cycle time and motion while providing more scope clearance. A dual bolt stop design allows the bolt travel to be reduced by 0.35″ for optimal operation on short cases like the 6BR. All these features lead to a stellar action aimed at the PRS and NRL competitions.

The Vesper S follows the same short action footprint. It is designed to be a lightweight steel hunting action.

The Bumblebee is also a Short action and takes Short action bottom metal. However it is not a drop in 700 footprint it requires a custom or modified inlet. This action is made from aluminum and is super light. It makes for a perfect back country rifle.

These actions are being used for King of two Mile and other extreme long range shooting.

The CT is a great option if weight is an issue. This is the smallest action we make for the Chey-Tac cases. We make it with integral rails up to 40 MOA.

The model L is a good option for both the 338 Lapua and Chey-Tac cases when a heavy action is required.

The model XL is a good option for both the 338 Lapua and Chey-Tac cases when a heavy action is required. This includes the big body Vestal Case that uses the CheyTac rim size.

The model EXS is the smallest CT & BMG capable action we make. It is an ideal option for the CT when looking for un-compromised strength and reliability.

The EX is a longer version of the EXS and has the largest port to maximize the capability of the BMG case.
