That's what makes it so rewarding. If it came easy and wasn't a challenge it wouldn't be worth it anymore.

Those that are sharing their stories here, take heart: 1) it's happened to everyone 2) the experience has made you a better hunter.

Never forget those two things.

Well said! Good Luck!
Live it up! Doug

7.62 Nato I was in Powhatan WMA. I use 3 30 grn pyrodex pellets. In retrospect, I ould drop the pellets down the tube right away and give it a couple seconds before pressign the round in. Lilfawn I have had friends with BP experience tell me about making a noise when trying to reload and causing the deer to bolt. I can tell you that tomorrow I will be out there and if I drop something, I'll be setting a recore for getting reloaded and back on target.
