Long story short, pulled the trigger on a big fat doe Saturday, instead of a hearty BOOM, all we got was CLICK!
( shooting a H&R Ultra Slugger) thought I must not have cocked the gun all the way(?) , so I re-cocked the gun. Now the doe has heard the loud click, and turned to go the way she came. When the shot was there, I squeezed the trigger again. CLICK!!!
now I freak! Open the action, check the barrel to be sure it's clear, grab another shell. By now the doe is moving away, but I thought I had her. This shot went off correctly, but I was geeked out, and missed. ( I did shoot the gun a little later at camp, nailed a pumpkin at 80 yards. Gun is fine )
So. Is this something you would write to Remington about? What should I expect? I have been shooting this ammo for at least 6 years, never had this issue.
For the record, it is the Remington Accu-Tip slug, in 3".
