Have you considered a semiauto with a more traditional look? I’m thinking of something like a Browning BAR https://www.browning.com/products/firea ... afari.html:Crash wrote: ↑Fri May 19, 2023 2:00 pm Because of problems with my right shoulder and wrist, I have trouble working the bolt on a traditional up-back-forward-down type of bolt. And since I don't care for semi-autos, which is easier to use, more reliable, and more easily maintainable, a straight pull bolt action, a lever-action, or a pump-action?
Thanks for any recommendations,

A rifle like that would be a lot softer shooting than a straight full or lever action in the same caliber. That said, if I was looking for something chambered in a more modern cartridge than .30-30 but not a semiauto, I’d take a real hard look at the Henry Long Ranger in either .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor: https://www.henryusa.com/rifles/the-long-ranger/.
