Went out hunting tonight for a little bit. Got another fox and 3 of the fattest coons Ive seen all year. Had a huge boar run out in front of the truck and the only gun I had in reach was my 10/22 so I put as many in him as I could before he got in the woods. On our last stand tragedy struck... As I went to take my first step off the high rack the sling on my new AR broke and my gun fell. It was an awful feeling as it fell followed by the worst crash sound imaginable. Everything looks to be ok but now I have to go check zero before hunting anymore.

Big coons and nice fox. How is Scooter?

Did you call the coons in? If so, what sound were you using?
