    Unpopular opinion here. Why do you need half cock if your rifle is always pointed in a safe direction? Load a round and put on the safety - keep your finger off the trigger.

    I've got a Garmin 64s but like my smart phone more for a few reasons. Battery life is better and the screen is a much better size. Works in think bush, deep in canyons and seems to be accurate...

    I regularly test the safety catch. It is rather easy to do. Although probably not needed.
