An improved bolt for a muzzle-loaded rifle of the kind in which a firing system is a aligned with the axis of a barrel, the bolt consisting of a cylindrical body housing including therewithin a biasing spring and a firing pin. The firing pin is permanently connected to a cylindrical retaining or a sear member having a prismatic-rectangular projetion emerging through an opening provided in the cylindrical body. The projection is acted on by a catch of the firing system, and the bolt mounted to turn and slide on a receiver attached to the rear of the barrel, having an inner wall provided with a central bore for the passage of the rear end of the firing pin. The inner wall supports the biasing spring. The rifle is cocked by sliding a handle attached to the cylindrical body forward, thereby the cylindrical body moves forward and compresses the biasing spring between the firing pin and the inner wall, the sear member and consequently the firing pin being retained by the catch which acts against the front edge of the sear member, and the firing pin being released when the catch is set loose when a trigger is pulled.
