Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Ruger Gunsite 3 Round vs 5 Round Magazine For Hunting

So I am looking for some feedback from anyone who has experience hunting with the Ruger Gunsite. Is the rifle easier to carry with the 5 round or the 3 round?

I can't tell for sure, but with the 10 round mag the rifle balances nicely at a 45 degree angle facing downward with 2 fingers over the front guard screw and two fingers along the forward edge of the magazine and thumb along the barrel. Or would is it easier to balance with the flush 3 round magazine?

Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks kindly.
