I once watched an elk for fun. It stood absolutely motionless for twenty-two minutes. If the shooter is experienced, they can probably see when to fire.

I agree to a point…..that little word "probably", is not a guarantee that something will not spook the elk.

My buddy just killed a buck in MT that stood absolutely motionless for at LEAST 37 minutes. And I only know that because of my time stamps on my videos. And he was in that stance when I spotted him lol.
But this is an awesome and well calculated long range kill on a nice bull!! Congrats to the OP!!

Apparently the OP was able to read the elk. May I graciously remind you this is the Long Range forum?

Understood…..I admire the skills and dedication of those that can easily and repeatedly make these shots. But,, I also know that unforeseen things can and do happen……extreme distances increase that risk exponentially.
I'm not saying it shouldn't be done……only attempting to make it clear that only the best of marksmen with the best of equipment should attempt these shots. You guys make it look pretty easy…..some are naive enough to think they can duplicate these shots with lesser equipment and less skills! memtb
