So are these rifles better than the other bolt actions like Mauser or Nagant then? This guy says so

Mauser is the best bolt action or at least the inner workings like the bolt and lock up are the best overall.
Influenced many newer actions and people have copied it forever.

Reminder that surplus gun owners are c.ucks, and owners of "guns" from c.uck nations are double cucks.

People who own guns from loser shitholes like Sweden, France, Italy, and """"Great"""" Britain should not be considered true gun owners. Those """guns""" are toys at best.

The Enfield has a few design side effects that do make it technically faster to use than a conventional Mauser style rifle.
.....
That being said, those advantages are very marginal if you aren't well fucking trained on the Enfield system; and one can still get very slick with a Mauser, if not faster, if that's what you're used to. For me, I can rapidly fire my k98 very damn quickly, but that's because I'm used to it, and I dislike cock on close actions.

Tl;dr Enfield has a small technical advantage that can be utilized by an experienced user, but preference and skill on a given system is more important.

I love Bloke on the Range, but I sort of disagree with his claim, outside of the technical advantages that I feel he overstated.

It's probably better than the nagant.

Of course Lee Enfield is the best.
Fastest action.
Better magazine.
Better sights.
>>
>>32089887
Most bolt actions woth the exception of some straight pull variations are pretty much the same provided you practice enough with them, any slight advantage is pretty much what is going to make the difference, magazine capacity or particularly rough bolt or shitty ammo aside.

>Is x best

You're going to get different different answers because people are going to read into this question differently. That's why these threads devolve into shit.

The Mauser design has aged better. The action is very strong and safe, and feeding, extraction and ejection are superb. It is the ideal template on which to build a modern bolt gun for the niches such a gun would fill: precision work or hunting.

The Enfield was arguably a better combat rifle, as it was issued, vs the Mauser as it was issued. Twice the capacity, better sights in the no4 & no5, and slicker action. More dakka is better. That said, I'm not going to run out and buy a stripped action any time soon to build something different on. They can't safely handle .308, let alone something juicy.

Both mechanisms are reliable. Rimlock is not an issue with the LE if loaded properly.
