I have a TC Hawken 50. The hammer makes a very assertive "clunk" when it gets the half cock and at full cock. When you pull the set trigger, there is s tiny "click". With deer in the 35 yd range, I can squeeze the set trigger and the deer do not mind... if the hammer is down or at half cock, the loud "clunk" sound alerts or runs the deer off.
Do you just wait with the rifle at full cock? Or is there a way to quiet that down?
Hunting in brush does not always allow time to confirm it is a shooter and then cock it fully before he is "too close" and hears it...
Just had a monster (for me) in close with rifle at half cock. He was chasing a doe. He had no clue but she heard the "clunk" and when she left, he followed...
