I bent the bolt on my rifle when I went to chamber another round, and could not shoot it again.

A bit excited were you?
How did you bend it? On opening, bent up or back? trying to close it before in battery, bent down?
Please describe the gun or the thread if this is already discussed.
I did have a Moose do a short charge while Elk hunting in Colorado. I was looking for a tree and there were none close that I could climb and the what-to-do's start to overwhelm one very fast. I sure didn't want to shoot him and I didn't want to fire my one shot, so I looked down and he stopped about 25 yards away.
This was my fault to start with as he was peacefully browsing in a willow thicket and I did a few UUuuuggs with cupped hands and then regretted it.
