    thats a bit crazy considering it could've been worse.
    That being said, make sure the safety is on until you stick the barrel out the window. Always serves me well when driving through South Central LA

    I don't know what kind of rifle he had, but Remington 700s bolt action has had trouble with that happening, I have one but have had no trouble with it, but it's happened to lots of others.

    .308? I am pretty sure the engine block would be shot (pun intended) with a .308 round at that range.

    While I laughed at the pun posts, I'm glad no one was hurt.

    Hahaha I suppose I should clarify that. He didn't just poke his rifle out the window. He got out and went off the road a ways to get a look at the herd crossing. In MT as long as your off the right of way you can shoot. He was approx. 30 yards from the road when he was watching the herd cross.

    Im glad you find your brother's negligent discharge so humorous. You and your brother are precisely the type of people I want to avoid when at the range.

    he obviously knows the law in his home state. I'd think a slight amount of humor would be allowed to a man who dodged a bullet and lost a transmission in the process.

    but I guess there is a slight amount of negligence to be had here..how did his gun get pointed at your truck?
