After reading the "600 yard Elk rifle" thread and reviewing some of the off topic posts about DBM hunting rifles' I started this one.
I've shot and hunted with blind, as in Rem ADL, release floor plate, as in most everything else, and detachable box magazine rifles.
I didn't have any trouble with any of them. For safety and my limited experience I am shy of the blind magazine. All three of my main hunting rifles are old Winchesters. Mostly because they are there.
I have a lot of enjoyment with CZ DBM rifles in .22 Hornet, and .223. Carry one or the other of them in the pick-up all the time. Bounce around the logging roads, occasionally jump out in the rain or snow and start shooting.
The DBM rifle that has never failed me is a Colt Sauer in .375 H&H.
Don't get me wrong. If any human, no mater how experienced, hits the wrong button on any mechanical man made product something unplanned is going to happen.
I've never lost, miss placed or couldn't find a loaded detachable magazine period.
I've misplaced unloaded magazines somewhere in my house or pick-up before hunting season or at least before I needed them.
