Don't worry about getting a half cock machined on the bolt mate. It's an nz wives tale thing. Just carry the rifle on safe when you need one up the spout and make safe the rest of the time by emptying the chamber like the rest of the world does.

Spend the money on ammo and go practice instead

Tikkas half cock are basically non existent. If all you’re doing is walking to your glassing knob and then set up and shoot from there then 100% wouldn’t bother but if you’re doing a lot of active hunting in closer quarters I would look at it. Each to their own but for what money is getting spent the $70 odd dollars is minimal.
