Bolt-Action Rifle

(Redirected from Rifle (Bolt-Action))

Description[edit]

The Bolt-Action Rifle is an ancient design favored for its simplicity and ruggedness. Because the user must manually work the bolt to eject spent cartridges and feed new rounds, bolt-action rifles have a much slower rate of fire than other rifles.[1]
