Strangely enough I've a .303 br bbl'd Martini-Henry that makes me smile every time I shoot it.
It's a beat to snot DP rebbl'd but man it's fun. Something about the slow lazy ejection of the empty; it just hangs in the air above the action...you can actually pick it out of the air and drop it in a shirt pocket after a few rounds.
Loading a fresh round is like throwing horseshoes, just kind of flip it in the there and the action funnels it home.

I'm a bolt man myself. I'm particularly fond of the pre-64 M70 but there are many other well built rifle actions out there that it's a difficult thing to choose an overall favourite. So long as it's well built and functions well I would use it without hesitation.
