Yeah, go out in the brush here in Texas, where you can encounter enormous feral hogs that basically appear from nowhere at very close range, even if you’re actually hunting someone else.
Bolt actions’ slow cycle time and easy fumble potential is a good way to end up dead.

Well, I HAVE hunted wild pigs in Texas, as well as javelinas. And I used a 1903 Springfield .30-06, which, as you know, is a bolt-action rifle. Of course, that was more than fifty years ago.
