[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1045292, member: 1656"] #1: Of all the topics to come up here, this one surprised me that it got people at each other's throats. I really don't understand why there are such strong feelings about this. #2: I don't get all of the comparisons to benchrest. Benchrest guns are purpose-built to be able to shoot fast with minimal distruption with target alignment during recoil. People making such comparisons are either being disingenuous, or don't hunt and shouldn't be commenting on what happens during hunting situations. Shooting off a Harris bipod with no rear bag and trying to reload, and get back on target, are entirely different than the BR game. And does benchrest typically shoot high recoil .30cal and .338cal rifles? I've hunted using the mag and single loading. Single loading is usually not awful. But I don't own a mag rifle that shoots so terribly that I would want to restrict myself to a single shot either. Espically around bitey scratchy critters. [/QUOTE]
