Me and a mate were culling turkeys near Ohura a few years ago. It was great fun, stalk up on a mob, get as many as we could with the shotguns before they took flight, then use the 223 and hornet to pick them off when they landed across the gully.
We had just started onto another mob when my mates side by side made a strange bang and he started swearing and jumping up and down. A big chunk of the stock had blown off near the action. He was okay but a bit freaked, I still don't know what caused it. We were both wearing hearing protection but no eye protection so he was pretty lucky.
