reaper1064 285 Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 All it takes is a moments inattention. Out tonight for a shoot and I am always safety aware, but this evening shows that you must always be on the ball. Always stalk with my rifle unloaded and pointing towards the ground, however I spotted a rabbit, loaded the rifle, just as a feckin' woodie burst out of a bush. Jumped a mile high, squeezed the trigger and shot through my boot into my big toe. Nice one, like I said all it takes is a moment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

reaper1064 285 Posted April 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 Got lucky, the boot caught the pellet so got away with a bruise and a split near the nail. Throbbing like a bitch though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
