Bolt Action Rifle
A bolt action rifle is a type of firearm that uses a manually operated bolt mechanism to load and fire cartridges. The shooter pulls the bolt back to eject the spent cartridge, then pushes it forward to chamber a new round. This design allows for precise shooting and is commonly used in hunting and target shooting.
These rifles are known for their accuracy and reliability, making them popular among marksmen. Many military forces and law enforcement agencies also utilize bolt action rifles for sniping purposes. Notable examples include the Mauser 98 and the Remington 700.
