Have you ever unintentionally dialed your scope on a hunt or otherwise?

It has never happened to me thankfully, but I have seen others forget to dial back down after dialing for long shots and then miss up close.

I have never had a dial turn unintentionally. There was a time I shot a whitetail at 650 in Missouri. Following that shot, I put the rifle into the case, took it to Montana, hunted for a couple days, and then shot at a mulie buck at 225. I missed it three times. Fortunately for me, he was significantly more interested in the couple hotties he was hanging out with. After the third miss, I realized the problem, and dialed back to 0. That buck made it back to Missouri with me. I’m very grateful for that experience as it was a good lesson learned with no consequences besides a couple wasted rounds.
