I have kind of a "rule" when coming off a stand or wrapping it up. Once I've decided I'm done, I unload and thats it. I walk out empty, and yeah, like you, usually see something.
That's the way it goes sometimes, but sometimes it goes the other way.
As for 7.62, guess he's feeling a little guilty. Nice to hear about guys doing the right thing rather than trying to justify poaching, baiting, and other questionable behavior.
