About a year ago I had used a soft bag when we had visited our hunting lease to do some work. A box of .410 shells had broken loose and I had thought that I had removed all the shells, actually turned the bag over shook it several times to be sure. As bad luck would have it I missed one that had somehow made it into a mesh pocket in the end of the bag and as I was going through security, computer bag already in the x-ray machine saw the errant round in a fold in the end as I was putting it into the x-ray machine. Crud, I pulled the bag off the rollers and told the screener at the checkpoint that I had a problem and was not sure how to handle it, after I explained to him what it was - he of course called over a supervisor who said that it was still my problem since it had not gone through the machine, he then went around grabbed my computer bag, and said since it was not his problem to go back outside to my vehicle and take care of it. I had heard the stories where once you are in line that you have to finish the screening process all the way through and was suprised when he escorted me out of line to take care of "my problem". Thank you to TSA for understanding. Now I never use the same bags to hunt with as I do flying since then.
