[SHOT 2022] Bushmaster BA-30 Straight-Pull, Bolt-Action Rifle

When people think of Bushmaster firearms they begin to conjure up images of AR-15s, the famous ACR, and even .50 Cal rifles. One firearm platform that does not come to mind is a straight-pull, bolt-action rifle which is what makes it so surprising that they debuted the Bushmaster BA-30 at “Industry Day at the Range” for SHOT Show 2022.

The Bushmaster BA-30 utilizes a spring-assisted bolt so you only have to move the straight-pull bolt rearward to eject a shell casing. Then, it automatically launches forward to chamber another round for you. While out at SHOT Show we all got to handle and shoot this new wonder gun, but it is stated that it will not be available to the public until early 2nd Quarter of this year.

  • Caliber: .308 Win | 6.5 Creedmoor
  • Barrel Length: 18″ | 24″
  • Upper & Lower Receiver: Type III Hard Coat Anodizing
  • Twist Rate: 1:10″ for .308 Win | 1:8″ for 6.5 Creedmoor
  • Trigger: DM2S Two-Stage
  • Bolt: Ambidextrous, Straight-Pull
  • Handguard: BFI 14″ M-LOK
  • Stock: BFI 1913 Adjustable Stock

The Bushmaster BA-30 comes with a 1913 stock adapter, but it is important to note, it does also come with a modular stock as seen in the photos and videos throughout. Right now the pricing for this straight-pull, bolt-action rifle is set at $1,800 for either the .308 Win or 6.5 Creedmoor chambering. Hopefully this rifle comes out when it has been projected and maybe it will even come in under budget. Only time will tell. Stay tuned to AllOutdoor all week long to catch information on all of the new products unveiled! As always, let us know all of your thoughts in the Comments below.
