Interesting video

This is a video originally made in 1986 by the Norwegian shooters association (DFS). It shows two disciplines in Norwegian national match shooting. There is some nice bolt handling by the best Norwegian Krag shooters of the 1980s. http://tbilisitube.com/en/video/VWIi5m9-0S8/DFS-instruksjonsvideo-stang-og-felthurtigskyting-1986

It amazes me how they trigger with their pinky or middle finger while maintaining a grasp of the bolt handle. I should hit the range and see if I can work that out. It could be very helpful at Camp Perry in the rapid if I could do it accurately! Their chargers are auto-release too...

Yes, that's the trick if you want to speed up the bolt handling. This is how it has been done in Scandinavia for the last 100 years, and I guess that's how the british did their mad minute drill.
