Palming the bolt vs using fingers?

[reinert]

If you haven't seen any of these videos of Franz Albrecht, they're worth your while to watch. He's using a Sauer 202 in .270 Win. cal. The second video down from the top is the one I tried to get to come up yesterday. Simply amazing, and you can see how he works the bolt on his "hog rifle." It must be good to be the Prince... BTW, his rifle is the "Wild Boar" model.

The trick as told by Crossman is not operating the bolt by the number, but one smooth act, palm up, rolling and slapping.

While the scale on my biathlon rifle is smaller, this is what I find as well.

Working the bolt is a single straight movement up and a single straight movement back down. Unlocking and opening are not separate actions with this method.
