Abstract:
A bolt action firearm that cocks the firing pin upon closing the bolt and includes a cam pin for a high velocity rimfire cartridge. In one embodiment, actuating the main spring while closing the bolt, instead of while opening the bolt, provides added safety against misfiring. A safety system is provided for the trigger mechanism and a robust connecting system for the stock.
