    If it ever happens to me I hope I have the presence of mind to immediately crank in another round before the deer bolts ...

    Would be interesting to know why your primer failed.
    Id say let the deer bolt mate.
    If you just happen to be lucky enough to experience a 'hang fire' and open that bolt too soon.....
    Kiss your hand and probably your eyesight goodbye.

    Its highly unlikely, but there is plenty of deer about.
    Use enough gun

    Good point. Only got one eye anyway and without it I wouldn't be much of a hunter.
    Moa Hunter and 40mm like this.
