Cheers for all the responses so far guys, great info. Thought I better branch out after a few years of banging over deer through a thermal atop a .308 around the glorious WC river flats

Just like me. Up hill shots over the bonnet (although out the ute window saves getting out) so it's a down hill drag to the road. Wouldn't dream of shooting one on the bottom side of the track.
