I use the half bolt method but with the safety engaged also, I tried the bolt down safety on method but had a scary moment when I slipped and dropped the rifle and found the safety had come off and also a mate has done the same but it went off. If you think you can hunt in the bush and only load when you see something well you must be a shitload faster or quieter than me.
The Blaser R93 is probably the only safety I'd ever solely rely on.
