Do you prefer a hunting rifle with a detachable mag?

[QUOTE="Viking264, post: 1243145, member: 97833"] No. The last thing that I want is a point of potential failure when chambering a follow-up round. My dedicated hunting rifles are all built on Mausers with internal magazines; I have never experienced a failure to feed. Can't say the same for the tactical rifles that I have with AI mags (two rifles, three mags). Tikka plastic mags have never failed to feed, *however* I have had the ledge where the mag clips into the well become worn through use, making it non-functional (it won't snap in), until I take a square file and freshen the ledge (it works afterwards). For that matter, I have never had a failure to extract with a Mauser action, either; can't say the same for plunger-ejector actions. [/QUOTE]
