When I say straight bolt I mean that if you look at the bolt handle, it sticks straight out not curved like on most rifles.

All Mosin Nagant rifles were made with straight bolts, with the small exception of their sniper rifles, usually a 91/30 had down curved bolt handles, I'm sure there's a few more, but the ones that really stick out are the Mosin nagant.

Most early Military Bolt action had a straight bolt. Lebel, Mauser, Moisin etc. Thought fairly early on it was recognised that a bolt action was quicker to operate with a curved bolt handle and as side benefit made mounting a scope easier. It would be hard to give you a diffinative list since many nations made the change over as a minor model variation if that much. The German Model 98 had a straight bolt but the 98a and 98k hand bent bolts. The Spanish FR-8 can be found with both types of bolts. Japanese and Russian Military Rifles hand straight bolts, except for sniper rifle with scopes.

Two I know of are the Model 93 and 95 Mauser, used in the Spanish American War. Model 93 Mauser chambered for the 7MM - 7x57, 170 grain bullet.
You can go to local library and check out book on Rifles old and new to help find more with straight bolt handles.
Some german rifles used in world war 1 had staight bolts but I do not know model or chambering.

You mean a straight pull bolt like the one on a K-31 Swiss?

The Japanese Arisaka (sp?) from WWII was a straight bolt, as were all of the above answers.
