Best Answer

It really depends on the exact rifle. Most bolt action rifles used a non-detachable box magazine. So, typically, you would pull the bolt to the rear, and feed the cartridges through the top into the magazine. When the magazine is loaded, you push the bolt forward to chamber the first round.

All Bolt action rifles work the same. When you fire you have to manually operate the Bolt to eject the shell casing and load the next shot. This must be done for each shot until the rifle is empty. In the case of Air soft there is no Shell casing, but it's the same action to load and fire.
