When I was guiding deer and elk hunters we had a stead fast rule. Bolt handles up, always. Cant go off by accident and instantly able to put into action when needed.
SMARTEST ADVISE I HAVE EVER SEEN ON THE FIRE!
I had a 700 oops years ago (safety release and pew)... been up bolt ever since.
His advice is bullschit.
I'd have to agree.
If that "adult nephew" had his safety on and knew how to control his muzzle, his Uncle would still be alive. The nephew is a fuggin moron.
Spot on.
But everybody will coddle the nephew as they don't want him to spend the rest of his thinking he killed his Uncle.
Agree , it WAS his fault anyway you slice it or dice it .
I'm lucky to be alive after hunting with my younger brother quite a lot in my youth , he'd have a rifle pointed in a dangerous direction more often than not . One of the reasons I hunt alone 99% of the time .
Rest in peace Gary Hunt ..
Horrible way to die and he had just retired .
