[QUOTE="sundance1972, post: 857371, member: 17911"] In 1996, I didn't bother to range test/confirm zero on a rifle i hadn't used for a few years and shot a mulie doe through the hips at 310, twice!! I think the first shot basically paralyzed her back end, because she tried to pull herself along with her front legs. Took at second shot that hit 3" high from the first. Got the deer, but range tests the next day had me shooting 6" right for some unknown reason. No idea what/how it happened, but felt like crap and have never gone hunting without checking sights since. [/QUOTE]
