This thread has sure shown me the proverbial light, all I can say is that I used to hunt cold....this thread now has me convinced that there is no need for my (so called) paranoia. Carrying hot is where it's at, I have given alot less credit to the mechanical safeties, and my own superior gun handling skill's, than I should. I really don't want to miss any opportunity to kill one of our super sneaky ninja buck's. Beyond carrying hot/cold, I dont' even know how I've managed to kill deer with a bow these last 15 years. Thanks to all you guys with your opinions....if nothing else, know that you have convicned one guy that he was just paranoid, and insecure, about his rifle handling skills. Here's to a future of more, and bigger, buck's while carrying hot!!!
