HEAD0001

I am locked... I do prefer the bolt action to the break action for many reasons.. not just the stock or even the hinge...

But as much as I hate to give Muley a lot of credit - i do think he and others have a very valid point - that for hunting accuracy - why would you need any thing else?

Even though my Omega is not a break action it is a very accurate rifle and a very good rifle.

My Triumph shoots lights out for hunting, it is lighter, and is a great gun.

But still, I just can not get a good feeling hunting with either of these rifles, as I do hunting with a bolt. I can lean it on a branch, press it up against a tree, lay it over my pack, or even on a solid surface such as a rock and not worryabout putting to much pressure on the forearm to cause a shift in POI, especially at longer ranges.

And my other big handi-cap is I really do not like the need to pull a hammer back to shoot. This is just a personal thing that I have never conquered, from days as a yougster using a 30-30 Winchester - through the Omega and the Triumph. The Knight Vision and or the Ruger #1 - those I could get use to... except the problems the forearms create for #1 users... and eventually the hinge joints.

Just my thoughts not meant to condem anyone elses thoughts... So thank gosh manufacturers give us options.
