Most pump guns have tube magazines. That doesn't work well with most rifle rounds. Bolt guns are designed to be fired from a rest if need be. No need to lift the gun to chamber the next round. That is not necessary for a shotgun. Pump guns work better for firing quickly on your feet. Thats good for hunting with a shotgun and not useful for a rifle.
They make guns both ways but once you handle them you realize why everything is made the way it is
