I'm not trolling. I've never hunted and wonder why someone buying ONE rifle would choose something more specialized and delivering less versatility. There must be something you've learned about a semiautomatic that makes it important to NOT choose one for how you'll use it.

Bolt rifle are believed to be more accurate. |
Even coming from north NJ where 200yds is long range, I respect the concept you mention. However I think if you're going to only have one rifle, then versatility should rule the decision. Admittedly, I don't know a damn thing about hunting. That's why I'm posing the question with reverence.
I think the particular situation that inspired my question is unique. I hadn't bothered to notice where the poster was located.
