[QUOTE="KDM, post: 325097, member: 314"] Ethics are like eyeballs, everybody has some and they vary from person to person. That said, an animal behind a branch is NOT a clear shot and should be avoided IMO. Basic hunter safety here. We could play the "What If" game all day if you want, but it won't make a difference. Brush in front of you target increases the chances of one, a bad hit or two a ricochet that can go anywhere regardless of how good a shot one thinks they are. Is taking a shot with increased chances of bad outcomes ethical?? I'd say no. Will a bullet go through a branch and strike the target a foot or two behind it?? IDK. My magic 8 Ball is broken and my crystal ball is cracked. Given a choice, I would wait for a clear shot regardless of weapon, but to each their own. [/QUOTE]
