No primer.

[ranafea]

Sick to my stomach. Walking in this afternoon 3 does ran 15 yards in front of me. Not even 10 seconds later a big buck walking smelling for the does. I had all my gear and stand on my back. No primer in. I dropped the gear I had in one hand and he paid no attention to me. He started walking in the direction of the does. I was looking for a primer and once I had a primer in, I look up and he was gone.

Didn't see a thing after climbing the tree.

I am a little depressed at the moment.

At what point do you load primer?

Always be prepared. The big 145" buck my buddy shot today was killed on the way to his stand.

I keep a couple loose in my pocket to get to easy. I spotted a buck once and broke nervous and actually pulled my primer off and threw it like a jackass for some reason and had to rummage my bag for another one while the buck was looking at me the whole time. I found another primer fast and dropped him. Now I keep a couple extra ones in my pocket.

If it is legal light and legal property, then I'm loaded ready to shoot. I suspect you will be too next time

Best place to put primers are in the screw holes in the recoil pad of your gun.

I don't load a primer till I'm on stand but I can quickly get one from my recoil pad.

I hunted all afternoon yesterday, and while walking out I remembered that I never put a primer in my gun. I didn't need one, but I would have been somekinda mad if a big deer had given me a quick shot opportunity and I dropped the hammer on an empty hole. It is always my intention to put a primer in as soon as I get out of the truck.

As soon as I leave the truck walking toward my stand. I will take it out when I pull it up into the tree, and when I lower it back down, but it goes back in for walking in and out.

I keep one on the nipple. It's really the best place for when this happens :wink:
