I prefer a blind magazine, and love the Barrett and Kimber... I just can't relate to the "pain" of that first world problem of having to cycle the bolt to unload.
This, and generally I’m not getting in and out of a vehicle very often when hunting so it’s really not an issue.
I like not having my hand on cold metal when carrying my rifles hunting as I’ve never grown fond of slings. That and I’m cheap, so no bottom metal usually saves me money on hunting rifles. Pure range guns are another story.
Plus like fubar mentioned, I prefer the more rounded bottom of an adl style for carrying a hunting rifle.
