How about staying out of the woods until you sight in that rifle!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10 feet is nothing and that little bit of elevation will have no effect at all on a bullet at hunting ranges. Either your rifle isn't sighted in or you don't know how to shoot and are flinching. Game deserves better than to be wounded by either.
By the way you do know that anti-hunters lurk on sites like this looking posts such as this to use as ammo against hunters don't you? Think about that for a minute.
