Reasons why I disagree: 1) Bolt actions, unlike semi-autos, can be affordably chambered in magnum calibers for long range precision shooting, offering an overmatch ability that an AR-10 doesn't have. 2) Bolt actions represent an affordable, lightweight, and easy to maintain firearm for anyone spending long periods of time on foot. 3) While not as true as it used to be, bolt actions are generally dollar for dollar more accurate than their semi-auto counterparts. 4) They are great suppressor hosts especially when paired with subsonic ammunition.

It’s a niche weapon for a select group of Soldiers. Snipers also usually carry autoloading rifles as well, so they have modern firepower. No modern army has bolt action guns integrated into their basic squad of infantry.

[@WillE454]

Regardless of intended purpose the bolt action rifle will almost always have an advantage over *most* semi autos in long distance scenarios.

[@carabinapacifista5627]

Depends. An expensive Scar H will be more accurate than a cheap bolt gun. But at the same price point, you can get a bit more accuracy with the bolt gun, even though you lose a lot of combat effectiveness because of not being able to do effective fire and manuever.

[@Kataquan]

False. Most modern auto loading rifles are just as mechanically accurate as most bolt actions.

[@bendrabik7908]

Source?

[@H.P._Lovecrafts_Cat]

To get a semi auto that shoots sub 3/8ths MOA is pretty expensive to say the least, plus no way you could get that with factory loads. You could basically buy a higher end bolt gun with a buttery smooth action, hair trigger, and high quality scope for the same price. For general "combat accuracy" though, even a run of the mill semi auto will work just fine out to 400 yards, with a higher end one being effective out to 800. Bolt actions (generally) really only outclass semi-autos past 800 yards, and in weight. However, if all you have access to is a standard bolt gun, they can still be quite effective with lots and lots of practice. I can fire a stock rem700 decently fast with acceptable accuracy by keeping my thumb and index on the bolt and firing with my middle finger.

I have an AR15 and AK47 that I’m very proficient with but I also have a Ruger Gunsite Scout 308 that I’m also very proficient with and if push comes to shove I wouldn’t hesitate to use it but that’s because as I stated before I put in the time and effort to become very very proficient with it

"In most situations you would be fine" Both world wars called, and they called you a tard and hung up. Bolt guns are extremely inferior to off the shelf semi autos for combat, and that's been the findings of every professional military since the 1940s. Even longer if you're considering the "build the squad around the machine gun" came about in part because volume of fire beats "individual well placed shots" as discovered from 1914-1918

[@leadpilled5567]

Glad your brought up the gunsite. The 308 scout rifle was a genius idea that is extremely versatile. Even more so now with some the amazing red dot sights and some dedicated scout rifle scopes available. Either red dot scout scope or both in quick release mounts so if damaged you can easily go to irons. 308 is more than enough gun for pretty much any North American game short of the great bears and with proper shot placement would do in a pinch for even those and is a proven man stopper. It’s light weight easy to carry compact enough to work in a building but is easily capable of 300 yard shots and in some situations much further. Removable box magazine makes reloading and carrying spare ammo easy. I have a custom scout rifle built from a Howa action that’s my truck gun. It’s just at home for SHTF or if I get out of work early during deer season and have time to do some still hunting or sneak into the deer blind. Col Jeff Cooper thank you for a great idea.

[@brusewane-zp6gr]

I always felt that way about ARs as well but after some time a bolt action with a smooth bolt is something I am feening for

[@careyfuel3278]

Correct. Each gun has its purpose, which is why I have 3 close range guns (2 pistols/1 shotgun), 2 intermediate range rifles (.22lr/5.56) and one long range rifle (.308). Each one for different scenarios... usually having only 1 gun will leave you lacking in some department, as there is no singular gun that is proficient in short/intermediate/long ranges.

Bolt action rifles will kill you just as quickly as a automatic or semi auto.

If you’re worried about home defense get dogs a chihuahua and a German Shepard, no one will bother you except the neighbors.

[@Redstarka22]

To be clear, the "Mad Minute" record is almost certainly not real, probably just a bit of army folklore. Professional competition shooters with significantly more accurate, straight-pull guns that cost tens of thousands of dollars haven't been able to replicate it at 300 yards, and the modern record is still only 39 shots at 200 yards.

I’ll say it in a more to the point manner, a bolt action rifle has multiple purposes.

[@Masterche18]

Bolt actions were just a simple to make repeating action (less complex than lever action) that also allowed for stacking instead of tube loading that is better for pointed bullets as well. When gas guns like the M1 grande came out, they started down the specialty path. The main advantage they have is that they are more consistently accurate with tight MOAs when put against gas guns because the follow up is much more deliberate shooter behavior wise, and there is only movement from the recoil vs. the moving mechanism of a gas gun. Gas guns can be very, very accurate, likely to a point where it won't matter as much in a real fight when your more focused on suppressing your enemy. Bolt actions are killers, gas guns are barkers(yes they are still deadly lol dont get it twisted).

[@Masterche18]

Oh another advantage was being able to have the rounds on stripper clips too instead if single feed into a tube magazine

You could fuck things up with .308 bolt action for homedefense any day of the week...

[@thegreatsoutherntrendkill272]

I mean you could I guess, but the odds would heavily favor you if you had a pump action 12ga or a AK47 😂...

All guns have 1 purpose, afterlife.

[@StevenHughes-hr5hp]

Looks like an old school sniper rifle to me.

[@Meatrunner]

Why bolt is better it doesn’t jam as often if it does try the bolt release also it’s way more accurate the military also uses bolt rifles

[@CesareRazzi]

Which rifle is the one in the video , remington 700 ?

[@stevebillieroberts9582]

What kind of rifle was that bolt action

[@galvinstanley3235]

The new army MRAD sniper rifle is bolt action,it was chosen because you can rack another round right after you shoot the first.

[@Robert_Sparkman_05]

It could be used as a sniper rifle in a wartime situation.

[@Nater_V]

Unfortunately Pennsylvania is the only state to not allow a semi auto for non varmint or predator hunting. I'd love to get a ar-10 or something for deer, but can't 😊

[@giveerhelloutdoors2648]

All guns are pipes that throw projectiles. I’d take any of them over a sharp stick

[@guns4funfreedomkeeper999]

That scope is set so far back, that thing is going to give someone a black eye.

Bolt rifle for hunting…4 legs & 2 legs

[@killertruth186]

The bolt action rifles were the most versatile firearms in the world. Now it is easier with an AR-15.

[@SomeRandomPerson03]

Not that you’d hunt anything wearing plates but if you wanna beat level 4’s……

[@skylord9688]

*Lee Harvey Oswald and the DC Sniper left the chat*

[@JW-bw8nj]

Bolt action guns are only good for hunting?? Hahahaha...who are these clowns?!

[@melvynsands757]

From England, they've just semi-automatic

[@Thezachofalltrades1]

Maybe just a hunting rifle with y’all’s training lmao

[@frankedgar6694]

Sore shoulder? Seriously? He must be one of those sissy city kids. My 110 lb granddaughter shoot regularly.

[@guccivanilla3691]

Laughs in Mosin Nagant and M77 mark II 300 win mag (my only rifles)

[@asakelly4585]

One bud light away from , I support the 2a (but)😂😂😂

[@Andy-sy1ko]

Any sane minded veteran would disagree as I do.

[@lordserpentine8246]

I got .223 hunting in southern states but you definitely need something bigger in the Midwest. .243 is the smallest allowed here.

[@Dcm193]

Do you carry ?
