I love it!! Lively discussion over push vs CRF, and now yet another controversy, double vs magazine!!!!!!!

I'll stick my neck out: I'll take the double. It negates my earlier comment where I was whining about the meagre mag capacity of the Weatherby MKV, but I'll take the two fast over the three slow any time. If it's really sticky, I'd expect things would be over pretty quick one way or the other anyway. I'm talking about hunting, not cropping.

If cropping, maybe I'd pull out a Mauser with CRF, but maybe I'd use a Remmy 700 if they could ever figure out how to drill the holes right and if that's what I had available to me..... Am I right in suggesting that even the Winchester model 70 was push feed from post '64 for some 40 years, until the most recent decade when the marketers rediscovered CRF? In truth, I'd probably choose a good Sako in appropriate caliber which in model 85 form is sort of a CRF.
