Has anyone ever got on? This weekend I took a shot at a doe and my nose was a little close to the scope. (Which I ended up missing anyway)

I shot and the scope came back and popped me in the bridge of the nose. It cut me a little bit but now I have a big black/blue bruise on it. Just in time to see all my family at the Christmas party

.
A guy I was hunting with told me a story. He was shooting a 30-06, put the scope's zoom up to 9x. Shot it, the scope came back and got a hold of him pretty good. He had a circular cut around his eyebrow, All in all, he need a few stiches.
Anyone else had an idiot mark?
