[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1044220, member: 30902"] If you can't get it done without reloading a magazine you never should have taken the first shot to begin with. On a dedicated LR rig a single shot makes sense for the reasons stated above but for most of us we're shooting an all around rifle because of all of the possible shorter range shots so for us a single shot makes less sense. I am however reminded of a time many years ago my dad and I were trying to put down an antelope someone else had wounded with him shooting a Rem 700bdl and me shooting my Ruger number one. The animal was on the run and I was able to get two solid hits that put it down in the same amount of time it took him to fire four misses. [/QUOTE]
