[QUOTE="LRNut, post: 1931335, member: 3230"] I once spotted a bull standing under a conifer; I am guessing it had been bedded down since I was on the north side of the hill. I was late to rendezvous with my brother so I was hiking somewhat quickly with rifle slung. I stopped, slowly shouldered my rifle, and shot him from about 125 yards. I don't like offhand, but I practice it at least once a week - sometimes you don't have a chance to get a rest and to dismiss offhand is passing up chances. I shot a moose in AK a few years ago same way; spotted him getting up from its bed about 45 yards away. If you can't hit a moose offhand at 45 yards, you shouldn't be hunting. [/QUOTE]
