   Might not be the best but my method (when bush hunting) is: Nothing in the spout while just moving through areas. If I come across great sign or an area that I think potentially may hold animals...

   That is actually how I like to run things, in the olden days when I did the MSC course, I was taught the half-open-bolt methodology, at that time, Lee Enfields were still fairly prolific but were in...

    The way I see it there is no perfectly safe scenario once a round is in the chamber. In the old days using a mauser 98 actioned rifle I always used the 1/2 cock system, I liked it because at a glance...
