Just to add my 2 cents... with any hammer gun sidelock-inline-30-30... I use the trigger manipulation that i think you all are talking about. Where and when possible the hammer is pulled back to 1/2 kock and when necessary the trigger is pulled and the hammer is pulled full back - release the trigger and ease the hammer forward till it catches the sear. The gun is already capped - primed - loaded.
And I agree at close range who bothers with the set trigger...
OK did I make a mess of that????
