It was around 5:30 in the evening. Wind started blowing pretty good into my face. I looked up at the top of the hill off my left shoulder there were three Deer. :shock: They were up about 150yds. I was deciding when i turned what i was going to rest my Gun on. I noticed the Deer looking really nervous for some reason. All of a sudden something is running right at me behind me. I turn and freeze. Three Bears stop 20yds from me staring at me. Now what?????? I only have one bullet. :shock: I jerked my hand and they took off running. Thank God. :) Now the Deer are running across the field. I pulled up and the BIG Mama Doe stopped broad side way out there. I layed the cross hairs on the back and pulled the trigger. She ran about 40yds and fell over dead. 8) I walked up the hill to were she was and looked for blood. I found blood but not as much as i expected. Sorry about the bad pic. It was getting late and dark.

To keep it simple, the primer does not get stuck. The bolt pulls it out and you are ready to reload.
