Rick,
The rifle I have been using is a New England Firearms .223 single shot breach loader. Mad accurate, nearly indestructible. But I find my self needing follow up shots where I have been hunting recently, mainly due to terrain, it's more close up, quick shots vs. the more open long shots the NEF is perfect for. It is truly a one shot one kill rifle.
I don't know if a dust cover is essential or not. The kind of terrain I hunt in seems to justify it. However I highly doubt I'm going to be getting unserious muck, and I always carry a basic cleaning kit anyhow.
