This is a combination rifle rangle/LGS variation. I'm working at the range the weekend before the deer opener. We're full up, with others waiting. A guy comes in with a .270 Weatherby Mag and gets set up to shoot. 'Tells me the gun should be good to go, but wants to run a couple to familiarize him self with it, as he borrowed it off a buddy. I assign him a target, and get back on my spotting scope to help the other shooters assigned to me. I was looking at his target when he took his first shot. No hit. I look over and he's white as a ghost. This beautiful rifle's in two pieces and there's wood splinters on the table and all over him.

Turns out he walked into a gun shop and asked for a box of .270 ammo. Yep-they sold him a box of .270 Winchester. So somebody loaned him this beautiful gun and he blew it up with one shot. There was brass all through the action. We couldn't even get the bolt handle open all the way. Thank God he only put one shell in it.
