Default RE: how many missed shots??

Holey Crap. I thought they were heavier than 27 pounds when they dropped out the hatch. I shot 5 times at a button(100lbs live weight) and only hit him 3 times. I fired the first shot aiming at the chest. Gut shot him veyr bad so I unloaded on him to put him down as fast as possible. he was moving. Went down after running 150-200 yards total. I found out a few days ago my scope was screwed up but have no idea when it happened. I spent a whole day at the range testing loads before season and had it down to 1 1/2 inch groups. I'm glad I didn't shoot at any others since I have no idea how long my rifle was unreliable.
