[QUOTE="VERYOLDHUNTERMAN, post: 294530, member: 16277"] i have been with a couple of guys that had their "dm" come loose for what ever reason. one had his fall out and had to backtrack some to find it. it is convienent when you are in and out of vehicles a lot on certain types of hunts. i still prefer the floor plate style such as the rem. 700 has. i have never yet accidentily opened this design. changing bullets from one type to another. as suggested by someone for a particliar shot at something seems to me to be the wrong thing to do while actually hunting. the secret here is to know your ballistics on the cartridge you have in the rifle and use it accordingly. ideally, your rifle should be sighted in for a specific cartridge and using another choice may be detrimental to what you are attempting to accomplish because the rifle is not sighted for this new cartridge. it seems from 40+ yrs. of watching people sight their rifles, most think that if they can score within a 3-4" circle at 100 yds., they are ready to shoot at anything. this is utterly disgusting to me. it is pure and simple laziness and a complete disregard for the game they are attempting to harvest. nuff said for now [/QUOTE]
