NEW PRODUCT: “Neuvo” Precision Action from BAT Machine

An impressive new rifle action was just announced by BAT Machine and Bullet Central. This new action, dubbed the “Neuvo”, has many impressive features, and it certainly looks like nothing else on the market. Hall of Fame Shooter Dwight Scott provided design input for the Neuvo action.

Bullet Central says much careful design and engineering went into this new action: “The Neuvo … action is the result of more than half a century of experience in rifle building, gunsmithing, target shooting and high-end machining. Bullet Central, Dwight Scott, and BAT Machine teamed up to develop this receiver. The Neuvo encompasses time-proven functionality with a host of brand-new features. The new action includes a wide-body, two-lug bolt, horizontal locking lugs and a totally redesigned fire control system. The Neuvo is manufactured by BAT Machine in the U.S.A. and available at Bullet Central.”

After reviewing early photos of the BAT Neuvo action, Forum member Alex Wheeler liked what he saw: “This action has some features that do set it apart. A full-diameter two-lug will open very nice due to the shallower cocking ramp angle allowed by the large-diameter bolt. There is no lug raceway, so it [could be safer] in an over-pressure situation. I also think that full-diameter bolts run smoother due to not having lugs to bind. I hope to get to handle one of these to really look it over. The big thing will be the fire control — that will make or break it in my opinion.”
