Fail beta and wiki then. When I saw it in the beta it said semi, and the current wiki's also say semi-automatic. Doh.
This is really confusing. The description says LA80 would be Bolt Driver action but I tested it during the Beta and it was semi-automatic. I really consider uprading my sniper but the descriptions seem to have alot of wrong details so we cannot rely on that. It´s sad but I guess we need the devs to correct the descriptions.
He just wants the bolt with the fast bullet with minimal drop. all empires have one. read the descriptions.
LA80 is boltdriver Basic is boltdriver. I'm not ingame, but the one which game witht he alpha squad was for sure bolt. Impetus is e.g. a semi-automatic one, only has 4* Scope and is pretty good for closer fighs.
