Did you go check your zero?



I haven’t yet (had to run back into town this afternoon) but will be doing so asap.

I think the gun is on. Shot a coyote last week without problem. I think the miss was due to long distance (275ish) on a half trotting buck by a surprised hunter.

Should have taken a breath, got a better rest, and taken care of business. Instead of freaking out and slinging lead, but it happens.

It stings the more I think about it. Missed/blown opportunity
