I was reminded of that one day ...

I had been feeding the cattle and pulling out of the pasture I happened to look down in this little valley at a stock pond and saw a big old snapping turtle sunning himself in plain sight. I stopped the truck, grabbed my Marlin 32-20 and leaned on the left side of the bed of the pickup, sighting across the bed and down into the pond. I had a clear sight picture and pulled the trigger and the truck went "WAANNNG"! I looked and sure enough, I had shot a nice 30 caliber hole in the right side of the bed. Just about exactly the distance from the top of the front sight to the center of the bore.
