My experience with others carrying my rifles then me shooting the rifles has generally been poor. Missed a big elk and a whitetail cause of a zero shift when others had shot or brought the rifle to me.Easily one half the time the zero of the rifle changed substantially when the scope was left on the rifle.This is unacceptable on DG.

I would rather carry the scope myself and quickly attach it than have a gunbearer hold it, have it change zero and me screw up the shot. Then I have a wounded Buff/Ele and everyone in danger.Better to attach the scope when the game is in scope range than have the scope banged around by gunbearer or vehicle, etc.I would obviously swap the Double for the bolt when the scope goes on

That is my logic.Whether it would actually work in Africa remains to be seen
