[QUOTE="flyin lizard, post: 440434, member: 10378"] Hey J.E. it was me ,two weeks ago and now its funny. To make a long story short I had been testing with the BH209 at 50yds with great results so I moved the target back to 100yds. for final zero. Had the rifle charged with powder and the bullet was being rammed home when it started rain, which was NOT in the weather forcast, so with all my stuff spread out on the side table I got distracted ,started to hurry and forgot to pull the ramrod, total brain fart. Luckily it hit well above the orbital socket ,so it bled good and turned pretty colors but all is fine now. I cleaned it and closed it with a butterfly. Thats the first time I have ever been scope bit, that recoil was a lot worse than the 375 H& H or the 458 mag that I have shot,, like Forest said,,, Stupid is what stupid does.. [/QUOTE]
