Please consider the size of the environment and enemies that you are going to be fighting with, because none of these weapons actually outdone the other once you consider those two aspects.

Braton maintains incredible accuracy even at large distances allowing you to score headshots much easier almost regardless of range, thus can easily out DPS a Boltor provided that you are accurate. In addition, bullets will hit your intended target almost instantly so you will have much easier time hitting moving targets. Use Braton if you are playing in a large map, fighting enemies that tend to move in various directions other than forward most of the time such as Corpus and Grineer, have their head as their weak point, and you are good at landing headshots.

Boltor has innate armor ignoring damage allowing you to deal far more damage than the Braton provided that you are no further than medium to short range since bolt firing weapons have greater diminishing accuracy the further it travels and much lower projectile velocity. Boltor is extremely effective against Infested, much more so than when used against the Grineer or Corpus since infested tend to move in one direction thereby almost elminating the need to lead your shots in to hit your intended target. Use boltor if you are fighting enemies in a small map, and fighting enemies that do not move in various directions frequently.

I have just recently bought and forma-ed my Boltor twice now (planning to do it 2 more). I like it alot, especially when figthing infested, but I personally would much prefer any of the Bratons due to it being more versatile than the Boltor, and since I am using a mouse, scoring headshots is not that difficult to make. Also, I do not quite like weapons that have a noticable projectile velocity.
