What would be your nominations? Mine would be the British Accuracy International AS50: http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn67-e.htm And the Russian VSSK Vychlop: http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn72-e.htm

Is there a major difference between high end bolt action and a high end semi-auto sniper rifle?
YES! Nothing beats a well tuned turnbolt. Mostly because you can mate the cartridge load to the rifle very precisely. You have to load semi-auto shells differently. You can get "acceptable" performance from a semi auto but the turn bolt will give you a tighter group.
 
Tehcnology has come along way since the M1/M1903 days.

PS: Longrifle, I have a sweet pre-64 in .270 that my dad killed 20 elk with back in the day. It still shoots sub-moa groups.
