Are butter-smooth actions overrated?

You mean like these guys?

There is a Krag at the 13:30 mark and numerous places through out if you are interested enough to watch it all. These guys know how to throw a match and shoot.

My understanding of that discipline is they were limited to a strict few former service rifles to keep it from becoming an expensive rifle race. Krags and k98s were primary candidates. They made the sauer 200 the one modern rifle to standardize that offering too likely because the aging original options might be becoming less available/economical to use for competition? Wonder what sauer had to do to get that deal?
