Thread: Why semiautos

For pest control (goats, rabbits, pigs etc) the semi is unbeatable, particularly with large mobs of goats. Having to work the bolt breaks the cheek weld and also pulls the rifle off target which adds at least a couple of seconds to your next shot. My best effort in one go was 13 pigs with 14 shots from my FAL. My hunting companion was using a bolt action Remington 700 7mm Mag and got a misfeed on his first round and never fired a shot. It was all over in 10-12 seconds.
