Double rate of fire for bolt action sniper.
I don't know if anyone has posted this yet so this is what I have found out.
You can do this with most classes but infiltrator works best.
When you reload your bolt action sniper rifle the animation consists of 2 parts: putting the bullet in and then sliding the chamber. However you really only need the first part. So you want to cancel out the second part by performing "an action". That can mean entering/leaving cover, hacking, rolling to the side or using a power (even if the power is on cooldown. In face powers on cooldown are best since they have no casting time but still interupt the reload).
So after you fire a shot wait for the ammo bar in the lower left hand corner to turn red and then press invis and you can fire instantly. This works even if you are on cool down for invis. It is basically an GoW style active reload. If you go to early you have to reload again but it you are too late then there is no penalty.
So if you stand out of cover (leaning out of cover takes time) and use this trick your bolt action sniper rifle can shoot twice as fast.

I noticed when playing soldier that I can fire a shot use adrenaline then fire another shot immediately without chambering or waiting for the bullet to pop in. I have to test again.

I just tested this with a few interrupt actions such as punch and dodge which works but your reload time isnt speed up at all because you have to perform the action. with adrenaline you can fire a shot immediately without putting a bullet in the chamber which means you can fire 2 shots simultaneously. I dont know which abilities interrupt and have no cd (adrenaline is not one of them) which ones are you referring to?
