[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1027782, member: 70559"] 500mag_guy, On a hunt several years ago as I was trying to sneak up on an unsuspecting deer I looked to my right and there's one watching me. I wondered how long it was watching me before it got up. I assumed it was not startled so I took all the time I needed to sit down and get a really good hold. The crosshair didn't move so I squeezed the trigger; only to hear a very loud report and feel like I got hammered by the recoil of a .300 Magnum. The bullet hit right below the chin where I was aiming. I haven't lost the thrill of the hunt, but I do have a brake on the magnum and use electronic earmuffs. [/QUOTE]
