There is nothing more elegant than a practiced rifleman working a bolt. To efficiently and accurately use a bolt action rifle, one must become a master of their weapon -- physically and mentally.Guns should have never progressed past the age of magazine-fed, bolt action rifles. I'm glad we all agree.
>>65147122you don't own a gun, do you? ):
>>65147130I'm rackin mine scout rifle right now anon. TALK ABOUT BOLT ACTION RIFLES... NOWWWWW
>>65147133>scout rifleif you actually owned a scout rifle, you'd have posted at least 3 pictures by now, with the OP being an entire diatribe over how its the best rifle ever made
>>65147153>>65147153https://voca.ro/1gUS5aLQybH9I may be autistic about rifles but I'm not that autistic
>>65147122I like bolt actions for the same reason I like lever actions, it requires a more deliberate approach to shooting, like driving a manual car
>>65147162Exactly. It's a slow, methodical style of shooting, one that lends itself to more deliberate use of a weapon, and higher accuracy. Plus it feels so nice to work a bolt
>>65147162>like driving a manual carwell-said
>>65147157clearly, you paid a guy on fiverr to record that
>>65147168Aight this is your last (You) nigga, talk about bolt actions or go
>>65147170recently got a nugget with a bayonet for cheap; its in great condition, and is buttery smoothi never understood how people complained about them being shit, maybe i've just gotten lucky with every one i shot/owned
>>65147181Very nice very. Is the cleaning and lubing protocol different on an older bolt than it might be on a new one? Some old guns can't take modern solvents and shit.
>>65147186nope, same as any other
Tried to get a pic of my bolt but kot swooped in and bonked the camera. I love him.
>>65147188God I want a nugget. Got a scout >>65147200 shoots 5.56, but its' hard not to feel jealous seeing that larger cartridge
I like bolt actions because I'm poor and stops me from spraying $20 of ammo for no reason when I get too excited
>>65147122Good first modern bolt gun?Already have mosin. Want something for 500m paper punching.Debating between Howa or Savage, Howa has a lead because I hear the actions feel nicer. Heavier and aftermarket are not factors to me.
>>65147541I will give you the compulsory boring answer which you must already know of and have considered - tikka
>>65147541I LOVE my Ruger Scout Gen 2. Many people hate it but I adore it. There are way better options tho (all my opinion)>Tikka>Ruger Gunsite scout (gen 1)>Steyr Scout>Mossberg MVPThat is only scout rifles tho
>>65147547If you think a sako barrel is boring to shoot thru you didn't get a big enough caliber and/or need to learn how to hit shit
>>65147558Jackass all I meant is that if you google "good bolt action" tikka is overwhelmingly the most common recommendation
>>65147547I can't Tikka because Jyväskylä reminds me of her.
Question:when should I think about cleaning or lubing my bolt action? Only other gun I own is a Glock 19 and I clean that like every 200-300 rounds
>>65148351>cleaningclean the bore after firing. nothing else should actually need cleaning.>lubingno lubrication is needed for a bolt action
I want a fucking m2010 so bad dude. that or a Barrett mrad in 300 prc. I might buy one before I die.
Thinking about a Tikka t3x ctr as my first bolt. Thoughts?
>>65148455Can't go wrong
I want to get a bolt handle in the shape of a skull with inset ruby eyes for my thirty banger
>>65148455Tikka is awesome dude.
You never see a nigger working a bolt action outside of the army
>>65148390>no lubrication is needed for a bolt actionOh shit really? Cool.Also, if I am working on palming the bolt, I noticed it jiggles a bit, and there are times when I drive the bolt forward at a wrong angle. Is that bad for the gun? Can't be right? These things are made to be handled
How can you not be romantic over something so pretty?
I ain't got one, but i want a swedish mauser, m1896 or 94.I'm a simple man, i like the clack-shclick-shclack-clink, i like the wood furniture, the internal mag stripperclip food hole, even the archetypal "generic rifle" type look to it. One day when I'm not broke.

>>65148678>>65148686I think rifles actually peaked round here. Made with wood and forged metals; not weird printed composites.TAKE ME BACK
>>65148710Bruh you can go buy this or any number of beautiful fuddguns like it today
>>65148710Part of me agrees, but i do also love some modern unicorn guns.>>65148753It just ain't the same...
>>65148678>>65148686I have one with a sweet tigerstripe stock, another with the small range-sighting badge next to the stock medallion.
Been eyeing the SA Heatseeker 2020 for deer hunting but it's bloody expensive
>>65151600It looks so good though
