I would have to say anything putting a good hunting bullet through any part of any body part is going take someone out of the fight. Just remember, we just have to get at least two of them for everyone of us and the fight gets over PDQ.
I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.
I f I HAD to pick a bolt gun to fight with it would probably be a Ruger Gunsite carbine. Realistically it wouldn't matter much, using a bolt gun in a real fight would most likely result in your death.
The only quicker way to die is to attempt to stand toe to toe with an AR15 against an organized force.
Shoot and run, shoot and run........

Not being married to any particular political party sure makes it a lot easier to look at the world more objectively... Having said that, MAGA.

Absolutely, the average number of rounds/casualty in Viet Nam was somewhere around 1/250,000. Nothing like an AR to shoot lots of bullets.

Krags are cool, indeed. They were, apparently, outclassed by the Mauser (7mm) in Cuba, though.
I built (2) Krags last year, one restoration and one highly modified 25 Krag Ackley sporter. The single bolt lug limits the long term pressure to 30-40 Krag max average pressure 40000 cup = ~ 43,555 psi. That is not good enough for long range with MY limited skills.
25KA with Bartlein barrel, with modified scope mount to get scope close to over the boreline.

If any of you really are thinking of going to a modern battle with a bolt rifle I would suggest a 22lr, so you can go hunt rabbits 'til all of the other clowns have finished killing each other.
At least you would still be alive and reasonably well fed.
I am assuming winter has really set in and some of you have taken to scratching at the walls?
In that scenario, you pick the most accurate rifle, which means a Remington or a Savage. Hopefully, they have a Remington. It's not like you're gonna impress the enemy with novel bullshit.
This is the most Texas schit I have read in a while.
LOL

I still got a couple of 03's with receiver sights, amazing how fast the can reloaded with 5 rd strippers . mb
And, at distance, you can keep the mag fully loaded, while feeding the chamber by hand, i.e., it comes equipped with a magazine cut off. So, when your position is in danger of being overrun, you can switch to feeding from your magazine.
03A3's are impossible to beat.
Except by an SMLE...

They should throw in some recoil from actual ammunition and re-do the video. A target would be interesting, as well.
I was thinking the same thing. Blanks won't be all that effective.
And at 300 yards.... Neither an 03 or a 98 can even come close...

Is the 03 more accurate? probably yes. Is the 03 a stronger, better action, yes. Is the 03's caliber superior to the 303? undoubtedly. Is the o3 a better combat rifle when it comes to reliability? even. But as a combat rifle, not even close and the Germans agreed. Refer to the first German encounter with the BEF in Belgium in 1914. fascinating story on the fast AND accurate rates of fire the Brits put out.. BTW, there are also literally dozens of videos out there on comparing these rifles and it really leaves no doubt..
