[QUOTE="Bbear, post: 1091213, member: 7898"] Deer season in Indiana back in '05 hunting with an Xtrema 12ga. I had a 160" class buck walk up. I eased the safety off and squeezed...CLICK. Buck jumped about 10' and stood there. In loading that morning I'd eased the bolt down and didn't get it locked in place leaving space between the bolt and the shell. I eased the round out and as quietly as I could put another round in and eased back around the tree. Buck was still standing there wondering what had happened. I took aim and fired. The deer jumped about 20 yards and disappeared. A limb the size of my thumb that I didn't see got in the way and diverted the shot right between the buck's legs. [/QUOTE]
