[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5343734, member: 1409"] While I totally agree with this, many assumed misses are in fact lethal to the bird, as in a single pellet to the stomach. Also, I've seen many mortally wounded birds run or fly away, dying unrecovered. Over the years I've killed several birds someone else had wounded a day, week or so earlier, and they were so infected I felt they were dead birds walking. Maybe the best thing we can do is only take very high-probability head/neck shots well within good range as any 1st shot. [/QUOTE]
