When the inexperienced actually try it and realize it not only can be done, but done with time to spare that rate will climb.


As previously stated,speed is not the only consideration for hunting with a round in the chamber.In fact,in my case it is the least important reason,the most important being the noise created by chambering a round.It really doesn't matter when hunting a less wary animal such as moose or caribou,but that mechanical sound will will spook a whitetail buck or bull elk.As I also stated previously,I do not always have a round in the chamber,doing so only in tight cover where game is regularly spotted at very close range.When mountain or prairie hunting or when hunting for animals such as moose,My chamber is normally empty.
