The gun failed to fire on a big 8 pointer this year, and that was not the first time. I don't need to worry about it if I don't mind "catch and release" deer hunting. Of greater concern to me is the potential for a poor shot resulting from incomplete combustion and altered point of impact. Worse than a misfire.
All of these are possible - that would concern me also... it took me 3/4 years to figure this traditional hunting thing out and now I think I know when I had better clear the load... but, someday i know it might bite me in the _ _ _, then I'll be mad and the only person I can blame is myself...
