    Likewise.

    Trying to chamber a round with the tips of three fingers pushing on the bolt handle and ending up with your index finger on one side of the cocking piece and the rest on the other side, rather than all four fingers and the thumb in the normal grasp of the butt wrist, ready to aim and fire? I'd like to see a demonstration of the advantages thereof as opposed to just sliding the hand around the butt wrist slightly to use the thumb.
