Smoothest Action

[SignGuy]

honestly i have found my old enfield has a smoother action then every gun i have fondled at lebarons *which means every one they have in stock*

A buddy's 1903 Mannlicher -Schoenauer in 6.5x54.

Open the bolt and holding the trigger down (on an empty chamber) , when you tip the barrel down the bolt will slide down and lock up on its own.

There's not much general consensus here....

I am not a seasoned bolt action shooter but the smoothest bolt gun I have ever used was my chums Blaser R93.Heafty price tag though.Slick as shiat through a goose.

Any bolt action where the bolt doesn't contact the magazine follower is going to seem smoother. ie. Tikka's

Dude you really have some audacity going there, mentioning Remingtons in this thread Klunky ol junkers.

Get back on your meds!

I agree the blaser 93 is very smooth. I've only handled one once. At the same time I got to cycle a sauer 202. The blaser was good but the 202 made me drool!!!!!!!

I own a sako and it is very smooth but not in the same class as these guns.

blaser 93

Bargain basement stuff

 

[Why not?]

Without a doubt, the smoothest bolt action of all times was the third generation Husqvarna. This is the rifle with the recessed bolt face and short extractor.

Some were marked as Husqvarna and some HVA Carl Gustaf.

Nothing being manufactured today that even comes close.

smooth

Rem 788's, fastest operational lock up time. That's what I consider smooth.

The Blaser R93LRS2....I've never felt anything like it. With my limited experience, I couldn't see much difference between Savage, Remington and Tikka. When I tried the Blaser it was so vastly superior that I actually thought to myself...HOLY SH*T!!!!

As usual, Ted is right on the money!!! Husqvarna 1900 action is the smoothest action ever built.

One of my boys has a Krico in 30'06 which is slicker than snot on a door knob.

My Steyr Mannlicher prohunter (30-06) has a beautiful feel to it, but I recently handled a HS Precision which made me wet my pants.

Remington 700....

And up to now I thought the cure was to buy more toys

Any bolt action where the bolt doesn't contact the magazine follower is going to seem smoother

that is certainly a key factor...
