ok, silly question I know...
Couldn't he have raised the bolt lever, not necessarily fully opening the chamber and removing the round? Would that have helped to lessen the chance of a ND? It doesn't take much to lock the handle back down, you could do it as you are lining up to take a shot...
Just a devil's advocate question as I've always changed shooting positions either with an unloaded rifle or cleared and open chamber...
