I've been bumped in the eye with scopes before. Luckily never been cut.
Heh. That looked like a blast.

I got one (idiot mark) shooting my little brother's junior 7mm-08 several years ago. He had retarded relief on it, probably to make up for bulky coats. shit hurt like hell, bled a little but mostly the headache afterward hurt.
Thought never crossed my mind. That makes me chuckle now that you pointed it out.
I think the best part was just after I shut the camera off, all the hail that started coming down hitting all the spent hollow shells on the ground. Sounded like a really intense rain-stick type deal, was like a victory soundtrack heh.
I'm def going to go shoot clays once a month now if I can manage it, at least a box worth of shells. It's really fun, and I'm sure that once I actually get out to the sporting clays range it'll just intensify the passion. I've applied at a few different hunting/sporting places that sell firearms/clays/reloading tools/ammo/etc so if I get hired I'll probably get into shooting a lot more. I like clays a lot more than just going to the range and plinking targets because they're moving targets, and not always the same trajectory and such.
Anything that is inherently more challenging is also inherently more fun. That's why I prefer black-powder shooting with muskets and archery over simple plinking with my Enfield.
Bleh, I don't like black-powder at all really. To slow for me, would rather do IPSC, IDPA, and 3 Gun stuff myself for a challenge instead of just trying to reload a black-powder rifle... I've never been a fan of archery and don't have much experience with it, so I can't comment for that area.
rabbits are an exceptionally destructive invasive species and my parents have a farm. it's not hunting for sport.
in fact, the only things i have killed have been invasive pests.
