    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    It is when the gun is pointed toward a person that It can kill that person!

    Yep open chamber always. My dad told me to always approach people / huts etc with the bolt in your hand, makes it clear rifle is safe.

    I was taught to always pass a weapon with an open breach, the army teaches you to show the receiver the open breach before you hand it over. if the action is open there can't be any "accidents"
