Life or death is one thing. Most any other situation, BETTER think it over killing the animal is only part of hunting. Fortunatly most here realize that. The damn internet is not the only place to use common sense and put safty first when handling guns. To some , killing something is the only thing that counts. I"ll not blast away at skyline shot. You go ahead if you want to. Like I said, hope I ain't around. I don't know where some of these hyoptheticals come from A skyline shot is an animal standing silhouetted against the sky. Period. Anything else falls under knowing whats behind the target. If I misunderstand what a skyline shot is then maybe someone needs to clear that up for me. Maybe all these dreamed up Hypotheticals need to be on another post because in most cases they are not skyline shots. I have made that as clear as I can. Thats all I have to say about it. Good luck!!
