Bronko,maybe it was just meant to be exciting. Those are good semisane.
My favorite ooops,(no brown bear hunt for me !)was at a shoot with a caplock.
Had split ball on axe head before and broke both clay pigeons,this time cap fired but no boom.
Tried again to no avail.(3 hammer drops and out per rules)pulled nipple and trickled a little fine powder in. Through my ear plugs i could hear powder hitting the dry leaves.
