In May of 2022, Wilson Combat announced the acquisition of New Ultra Light Arms (NULA), a company known for making extremely lightweight bolt action rifles. A little over a year after the acquisition, Wilson Combat introduced the updated version of the NULA Model 20 rifle. Model 20 is a short action rifle chambered in cartridges like .308 Win, 6.5 CM, .243 Win, etc. The company is now expanding the NULA product line with the release of the NULA Model 20S, a mini action rifle chambered in cartridges of intermediate length.
