And where, exactly, have I EVER said that I hunt with the safety off?

Safety on, chamber empty.

Game sighted, and my intention is to shoot, I chamber a round. When the crosshairs are on the target, the safety goes off. NOT BEFORE!

That you're making schit up, whilst still upset that I haven't ignored you and your stupidity on certain issues, shouldn't really surprise me.

As stated elsewhere, when you act like a dumbazz, you'll be treated like one. When you say stupid schit, you'll be called on it. The "don't flame me" schit don't fly, when you're advocating unsafe practices.

The "moment of truth" happens on hunting shows. Schit happens in the field, i.e. tripping, falling, crossing fences and blowdowns, etc. That's where a loaded chamber will get you or someone else killed.

And, yeah, gun safe gun handling trumps all.

Rule #3 of Gun Safety: Keep the gun unloaded, or a round out of the chamber, until ready to fire.
