[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2021156, member: 101791"] I think it what a person whats, or feels they need it, or it works for them. I have generally use Mauser 98 actions, because of there safety devise. A great many years ago, while hunting Muley in Utah I knock my safety on my 721 Rem rifle. Being a left hand person, I carried my rifle on my left side, and carried a round in the chamber too. The safety devise is on the right side of that of rifle. So it moved against my left side and moved the safety off. I was climbing up on some rocks and lost my footing. Reaching back stabilizing my rifle, Somehow I got my thumb into the trigger well, and touch off the round coming close to taking my head off. I never carry a round in the chamber again while hunting muley with that rifle. When hunting Elk they can disappear in a moment, so I had to go back to carrying a round in the chamber, but I had Mauser 98 action, which you can't knock the safety off. So any 700 Rem or other action with the same location for it's safety devise, and you are left handed beware. [/QUOTE]
