Sniper rifles are generallybolt-action rifles. That means the sniper must load and chamber each round he fires. Once he has fired, he has to clear the shell casing and load another round. Though they are more difficult to operate andhave a much slower rate of fire, bolt-action rifles are preferred because they havefewer moving partsthan automatics. There are semi-automatic sniperrifles, though, such as the M-21. Army Ranger Sniper had this to say about how the nature of the different rifles can affect a sniper in the field: "If you fire something on a bolt action, you have to reload one, and that movement could give you away. But also, the round flying out of the rifle could give youaway on the semi-automatic." In the end, it comes down to the personal preference of each sniper.
