I thought posting a thread about missfires and booboo's just may be a learning experience for all of us. Sometimes we need to be reminded so as not to get complacent!
A few years back hunting with a companion, we got in his pickup and left the field we were hunting. He forgot to unload his rifle(LIVE ROUND IN CHAMBER), for some reason when he remembered he reached down and pulled the trigger. You guessed it death to 350 engine by 300 Weatherby( See Cooter they can kill.
lol) Awfull hard on the ears ,damn luck he didn't blow his foot off.
