That thing dropped like a tater head after too much NyQuil and gin.
God bless Texas----------------------- Old 300 I will remain what i am until the day I die- A HUNTER......Sitting Bull Its not how you pick the booger.. but where you put it !! Roger V Hunter
I'm gonna hafta check time of flight on that particular bullet out of a .375H&H AI.
I think that critter just fell over dead knowing it was you shooting and it was gonna die anyway.
Died of respect...
It must have taken it awhile to figure out who the dude with the gun was.
I figured it would just stay down from its nap and die while still on the ground if it had known it was kamo_gari walking up on it.

Here in Boston you get a choice. Die happy or die hard. Close your eyes or keep them open and find out. End result is the same damned thing.
Guess I wouldn't mind dying hard.
Her on top doing the tough work.
Me enjoying life.
Eyes would be open.
L, that hunt, story, and video takes the Gran Prix for 2022 here.

Your right elbow dropped at the shot more than likely it was the cause of the great question. Not like test fire the rifle prior.
Your under stress and anxiety to get the shot in hunting conditions
Cause that video honestly doesn't show much of anything to CSI... You are right handed???
Did you shoot the rifle off a bench where both elbows are supported? And it went well. Did your shoot the rifle off the tripod and at what range and it went well? As distance increase the error increased.
Dude.... It's a dead Buffalo on a once in a lifetime tag. And your using gear relatively unfamiliar to you. I think your right elbow out in the air and dropping a tiny bit is what caused the "errant" shot. Which was a killing shot...

well I have a heck of a brown bear video but no permission to show it... hows that for baiting, Lets just say as he gets up to come at us he gets planted hard. That after a number of 300 win mag rounds failed to totally stop forward progression. LOL. But he was only 9 foot 11 inches. Click bait.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....
OK kids, here's what you've all been waiting for. Or not. Thanks to SD for taking the crappy video and spending 20 minutes on the phone with me just now getting it uploaded. Video not good enough, I don't think, to make a call on definitive operator error. Bison down, with authority, @ ~ 43 second point.
In any event, I don't think anyone can argue about how quickly that bull died. Hammer down. Best worst shot I've ever made! SD, Rost495 and VernAK, you boys made this kid's dream come true. 'Thank you' doesn't even begin to convey my gratitude to you lads. Hopefully, my actions and words will.
Love it. Thanks for making technology work!

That bull did start to turn into your shot.
If an animal can move enough to throw a shot off at that short range, imagine what they can do at 500 yards plus.
Drt, the rest is speculation. Glad you got it done pard!
Thanks, bud. Just reread what I wrote in the post with the video, and I don't think what I wrote came across the way I wanted it to. Bottom line for me is I must've pulled the shot due to poor form or whatever and nothing less. I just got lucky. With a shot so badly taken, it very well could've been a gong show of epic proportions out there. I'm so very glad on a lot of different levels there was so no such event. Aces, Rost, IB, R50, Sammo, TI, Geno, thanks for the words.
Think I'll bang out a pot of Japanese style bison curry tonight and ponder it some more.
