[QUOTE="criticalbass, post: 825490, member: 711"] I agree that shooting upside down is unlikely to be necessary. If your position has been overrun by unfriendly critters, there may be some very active movement of a rifle while reloading. Controlled feed provides insurance against against getting a round slung out during rapid movement of the weapon. Some Africa professional hunters like it for this, while others want you to be able to drop a round in and slam the bolt closed on it for a fast reload, especially in low capacity magnum calibers. I have always thought it to be sort of a toss-up, but bolt action rifle shooters should at least know about it. CB [/QUOTE]
