Keep in mind that people with hunting rifles often get mauled when they have to put the rifle down for whatever reason (most often field dressing an animal). In addition, hunting rifles are/should be carried WITHOUT a round in the chamber (when there is no shooting opportunity) which adds time to their use for self defense.
People don't get "often" mauled - period. Bear attacks are not an often activity.

How you feel your hunting rifle should be carried is on you. As far as I am concerned, an unloaded rifle is nothing but a club.
