Admitting that this is a deer forum, I know a person who missed a 1000 pound 60 inch bull moose at 40 yards with an 06. Not once but 3 times His son killed it with single shot from a 270. Guy is a great hunter and found the bull. Almost didn't mean much.
That person's rifle should be taken and he should be retired to camp cook. Almost doesn't seem possible, given proximity/size. Maybe he hit timber?
