When I shot my last moose in Maine, the bull was standing in the middle of a clearcut at about 150yds. My guide asked, "can you hit him from here with that levergun". I said, " probably, but I'd be a lot more comfortable if I could lean against that tiny birch tree", which wasn't too far away. When I'm afield, I'll use whatever is available to promote good shot placement.
