I am mad at myself. I changed the recoil spring in my AR, when I test fired it
It shot a little to the right but I ignored it. Big mistake. I missed a 160 class
buck, the crosshairs were on his neck, no body shot availible in the thick brush. I did shoot a smaller buck later. I hit it 4 inches to the right. The big one was about 30 yards farther away. A day later my nephew's 12 year old son shot the same buck from the same stand. Pretty nice first deer. I am glad he got it, now I know it is dead not wounded. And it's a lifetime thrill for him. It's been many years since I missed a shot on a deer. Now the kid can tell everyone that he got the big buck that his great uncle missed. For the next 70+ years or so. The hunting legacy lives on.
