You left while you could still hear him moving? If you could still hear him moving then you knew where he was. Why wouldnt you have gone to the noise and finished him off?
I'm wondering why till the last moment I left, I could still hear him moving if he was going to die. He was still moving in the bushes for more than 30 mins. The time frame would be more than 30 mins between him getting shot and me leaving, when I left he was still moving.

Not to be a jerk, but some comments don't make sense saying "you should carry a headlamp" and stuff.It's not the first day, I have not just one, but 2 plus a flashlight and don't think there's anybody here that can say "I can confidently make a 130-140 yard free hand shot from 300 Win Mag at a vital spot". At the moment, that's your best decision and and we do the best we can. it's easy to say what you could've done better, but we all know that you wouldn't have done any different. But back to the subject. I'm wondering why till the last moment I left, I could still hear him moving if he was going to die. He was still moving in the bushes for more than 30 mins. The time frame would be more than 30 mins between him getting shot and me leaving, when I left he was still moving. The meat is probably already spoiled if he died, but I will definitely check again, If I find him dead, i'll notch my tag just to feel better. We win or we learn.
Why ask for advice if you don't want to listen?Were you coming on here looking for people to validate your decision to leave a dying animal on the hillside?
