Had a friend who never shot a 30-06 before. We were out at his uncle's farm when the farmer brought out his new 30-06. We took turns shooting it at a target when it was my friend's turn to shoot.
He tucked the stock under his arm and put his eye right up to the scope. As soon I yelled "Don't shoot, Clint!" he fired. We took him to a hospital for a fractured eye socket in the eyebrow area and a hell of a bleeder. He got stitches.
He had headaches for days.
Before all this we were shooting 22s and 380s and since I'm familiar with hi power rifles he wasn't.
