    Blt Action Rifles

    This mostly comes up in Pulp Hero, but can show up else where.
    Does a character with a bolt action rifle need to spend a half phase working the action before he can fire a second shot?
    If not, is there any advantage to a semi-auto weapon over a bolt action one?
    Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. Nations and peoples who forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and freedoms. — Robert Heinlein

    There's no specific rule for bolt-action rifles that I can recall. The GM can certainly impose one if he wants. I think that might work well for "realistic" games, but I doubt most people would bother for more "cinematic" fare.
