Hey, guys have been known to completely run a gun dry--without even pulling the trigger once!
Once I stopped my truck to look at a really big buck; it was on the off side, so my passenger could take the shot. Not very far; the buck was unconcerned about us and just meandered along. My buddy didn't even raise his rifle. He just sat there, saying, "My God, look at that! Look at him! My God, he's huge!", and on and on as the buck wandered into the brush and gone, gone, gone...
