[QUOTE="dmoon, post: 1382557, member: 99729"] I've got one that's a combination of funny/life lesson. Several years ago (2005) my normal hunting buddy and I decided to go call coyotes, I had just bought a "new" .223 from my a buddy and was excited to get some blood on it. We loaded up in my truck, a brand spanking new F150 Lariat and drove out into the pasture (I like to use my tools, not look at them), parked down wind of the draw we wanted to call and took off walking. After about a 30 minute sit with no noticeable response we packed up and headed back to the truck. We had to cross a fence to get back to the truck, so at the fence I grabbed the fore grip and went to open the bolt and unload the rifle. As I lifted the bolt, BOOM-whack....I looked up and saw I had shot my truck....right as the front/rear door junction on the two tone paint line. My buddy heard the metal ring and looked over at me and said, "you didn't did you?". All I could do was laugh and say "Yep". The worst part was calling my wife and telling her, as she didn't know I had taken the day off to go hunt :) I laugh about it now, but its a good lesson into knowing where your bore is pointed that I use in all of my hunters education classes now.
