I guess only reason I mind it being that way is because there have been a few times where the ability to quietly eject a cartridge and rack in a new one, has allowed me to take game where I missed because I forgot that at 25yds, you need to aim about an inch below crosshairs, since the bullets path is still rising from 1.5 inches underneath the scopes line of sight.
So when I heard the "zip" I cringed, imagining the few critters that would have heard that and bolted at times in the past.
So a game animal doesn’t run from a missed gunshot at 25 yards, but it does from a slight noise from the bolt?
