Thats a real hard question to answer. I would still rather trust a bolt action (prolly a M40 A3 or some tuned up Rem 700). Less chance of problems in the field.
Semi auto is nice if you are at close range but thats what side arms are for. Past 500 yards a good man with a bolt action can get "accuarate" follow up shots off just as fast as a semi auto. You can always use like a AI Chasis so you can take 10 round mags too.
If most of your combat will be up close within a 100 yards you might as well just pick up a m4 but for sniping I would stick to a bolt action.
