What action on a gun is the most accurate?

Typically, the bolt action rifle is capable of the greatest accuracy, although there are single shot rifles capable of exceptional accuracy, as well as some very good auto loading rifles. The most accurate rifle will probably have a heavy free floated barrel with a special muzzle crown, a special chamber, and a VERY precise trigger.


What was the name of the Canadian-issued rifle?
