The Germans used a hunting rifle.
The Americans used a target rifle.
The British used a war rifle.

So, when your position is in danger of being overrun, you can switch to feeding from your magazine.

Back in 1973 I had a nice 03A3 full military. Didn't have much use for it then and had just enough heart not to build a rifle out of it. Sold it for $150. which I thought at the time was a lot of money and I bought a new Remington model 700 BDL 270 from Gibsons for $134. plus tax. I think I was 17 when I bought it. My 30-06 was built from a Springfield someone had already started the "sporterize". By that they had chopped the stock and thinned it up. Still had the peep sight on it. I gave $75. for it in 1979. I notice no mention of the model 700.

I have heard that since I was a kid, and I am an old grandpa now.

Seriously, forget the top load, or stripper clip stuff of 80 years ago or what Cooper preached 40 years ago.
The AICS mag fed rifles of modern tactical & sniper competition pretty much rule in capacity or speed in reloading.

Enfield is the best for rate of fire and on balance everywhere else.

Remington 700 with the original trigger. Point it at the enemy and just keep racking the action.

Unless you're a sniper, why in hell would you go with a bolt action in a fight? Unless it is heavy enough to club a bunch of dudes to their doom while you're trying to reload ..... stupid question IMO....
Never underestimate your ability to overestimate your ability.
