Older Brother
Hunting on a friends family ranch that had two sons the same age as me and my older brother. We got invited out together. I was 13. My older brother walked from the blind they dropped him off at over to where they put me one morning to swap rifles. I was like what the heck are you doing here. He wanted the 30-06. So he left with my loaded 30-06 and handed me the .243. About 15 min after shooting light a nice nine point came out at about 70 yards following a doe. I lined him all up, did a short whistle, he stopped and looked right at me, I squeezed the trigger felt the trigger snap and "CLICK" no round in the chamber, buck never moved, still looking my way, so I quietly slide the bolt back and there are no rounds even loaded in the magazine. So I had to sit and watch him run around for about an hour with a pocket full of 30-06 rounds. Little brother was not happy. To this day my older brother laughs about it.
