I need to ask: Why the detachable magazine? I've tested several hunting rifles with magazines like that, and always wondered what particular advantage they have. Indy mentioned not being able to carry them at the balance point, but I also wonder about a higher-capacity, detachable magazine with the release lever stocking below the bottom of the magazine. Why is this so desirable? Seems to me like something waiting to go wrong.
