[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2337012, member: 10755"] Rule of thumb for uphill or downhill shots is to aim in the bottom third of HAIR. Never aim for AIR. Unless the shot is almost vertically up or down, you always aim LOW. I lost an animal due to not aiming low enough because in my haste I forgot to aim low. Animal was taken some months later and the hit that didn’t take him had healed over. Was hit between the shoulder and spine without doing any real damage. Was a Nosler 225g Accubond out of a 338WM at roughly 225mtrs. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
