I've been watching the Olympics and it never ceases to amaze me how well biathletes shoot (heart racing, no heavy jacket, no thick shooting mitt etc). And of course the rifles themselves are very nice to look at. The feature that's the coolest to me is the straight pull bolt action and how smooth the action looks. Has anyone here ever had the opportunity to shoot one? Is it substantially different from an Olympic 50m style rifle for example? This enquiring mind wants to know!
