Moral of this story. Dont go Stalking if you have Dropped your Rifle the week before. Check zero before you deploy. Makes me laugh he went for another shot after! I think im safe in saying im in good company here and no one would be that stupid :lol:

LOL I can only assume he got confused and thought it was all his fault and wanted a second shot to prove something.
Wondering....is it normal the deer just stays after a shot like that, a lot of noise and it just keeps grazing.

Confused :lol: I think a trip to Specsavers should have been part of his Pre deployment checks. As the old saying goes
Preperation
Planning
Prevents
p***

Honestly, stalking, I simply would not have dared take a shot with my rifle if it had been dropped.

Could be the case. I have also known people to "aim off" when presented with a live target. I still reckon he was just a dipstick who shouldnt have been out there shooting with a "Knocked" Rifle
