we were glassing a clear cut  looking for a couple hundred pounder we had been seeing and this fella jumped up on a stump below us for a look around. we tried to get situated for a shot and he hopped back down. it was a 20 minute game of hide and seek before he stepped out into the open for a  clear shot. one shot behind the front shoulder and it was over, he's shooting a remington 788 in .243.

Proof that shot placement is 90%...  Well done to him.
