I do sometimes load the gun on the tail end of a stalk if I think loading it is going to get me busted but otherwise its unloaded. (no round in the chamber)

I was always taught, "Treat every gun is if it is loaded." When hunting I pretty much always have a round chambered, safety on and muzzle control at all times. Just the way I was taught.
