Most straight-pull rifles have a striker firing mechanism (without a hammer), [citation needed] and models using a hammer usually have a comparably longer lock time than hammer-less mechanisms. The Anschütz Fortner action used in biathlon is a good example of an ergonomical straight-pull rifle with good economy of motion and high operating speed.
Some other notable modern straight pull bolt-action rifles are made by Chapuis, [9] Heym, [10] Lynx, [11] Rößler, [12] Strasser, [13] and Steel Action. [ 14 ] In the sport of biathlon , because shooting speed is an important performance factor and semi-automatic guns are illegal for race use, straight pull bolt-actions are quite common, and ...
Straight-pull bolt-actions differ from conventional turn-pull bolt-action mechanisms in that the bolt can be cycled back and forward without rotating the handle and thus only a linear motion is required, as opposed to a traditional bolt-action, where the user has to axially rotate the bolt in addition to the linear motions to perform chambering ...
The Savage Impulse straight-pull rifle introduced in early 2021 features a similar locking mechanism as the SR 30. Besides differences in the applied control mechanisms a major technical difference between the locking mechanisms of the Heym SR 30 and Savage Impulse rifles is that the 6 'hexlock' hardened steel locking bearings of the Savage Impulse bolt head, lock into a machined half-round ...
The Mannlicher M1895 (German: Infanterie Repetier-Gewehr M.95, Hungarian: Gyalogsági Ismétlő Puska M95; "Infantry Repeating-Rifle M95") is an Austro-Hungarian straight pull bolt-action rifle, designed by Ferdinand Ritter von Mannlicher that used a refined version of his revolutionary straight-pull action bolt, much like the Mannlicher M1890 carbine.

The R93 straight-pull bolt action locks by a 14-lug radial collet in a 360 degrees groove in the barrel and is designed to withstand pressures significantly exceeding the Mauser 98–type bolt-action rifles. The Blaser R93 displays a locking surface of 66 mm 2 (0.102 in 2) compared to 56 mm 2 (0.087 in 2) for the Mauser 98. The bolt is ...
An uncommon part of its design is that it is a straight-pull bolt-action rather than a turn-bolt, which allows for much faster follow-up shots. The 14-lug radial collet ensures the centering of the cartridge when fed into the chamber assisting in its accuracy. Barrel changes by an experienced person can take place in under 60 seconds.
