Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Poll: Do you hunt with a round in the chamber?

My 11yo son thinks the "hot carry" crowds adamant and feverishly spouted reasons for their chosen methods simply doesn't cut the mustard....

Case in point:

This weekend while still hunting in some thick brush, my boy had absolutely no problem with wracking a round, raising his rifle while simultaneously flipping the scope covers open, pasting his cross-hair and trippin' the trigger on this freakish spike at under 30 yards.
