I have reasons and I care enough to argue about them cause I'm a stoner.
Marksman shots do 80 damage, that's enough to either down someone or put them into retreat and heal mode. As you can shoot as quick as you click (disregarding the minimum time it takes), you can quite quickly spread insane damage to multiple people. Now I'm not going to say you should lower the damage cause that's kind of part of the charm, but adding a bolt action mechanic would give people a little bit of time to run around after being shot once, or almost being shot. Let's not forget that the sniper can setup shop behind a wall and shoot through it with xray.
A bolt action, imo, would also encourage use of sidearms as you couldn't just throw 3 shots out on an attacker willy nilly.
