It does me.

We moved segments running dogs Saturday. When I left my spot a d got on the four wheeler to move I took the round out if the chamber.

When I got to my new spot I cycled a round in.

I've seen a few "accidental discharges" with one where the person "was sure the safety was on". A little girl from someone we know was killed in one such discharge.

I look at it differently than I do my carry weapon. A shotgun as such will be sat down or leaned up again something at some point in a hunt where I might walk away. My concelead never leaves me and does not come out of it's holster eaven when I take it off and put it straight away into it's locked home where I can trust it's safe.

As another poster said, you can't reel back in a fired bullet.
