[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 1392749, member: 33822"] I like being able to lock the bolt from opening especially when hiking through thick brush. But I never see animals when I’m hiking through thick stuff making noise, so there’s no point in having a round chambered. Like dmj, I only chamber a round when I’m about to use it. Otherwise I leave the chamber empty and close the bolt with the trigger pulled so the spring force of the firing pin holds the bolt closed. So now all of my rifles have 2-position safeties. [/QUOTE]
