Question

what is the preferred rifle shot for larger game animals, such as elk or bear?
a rear-end
b quartering-toward
c broadside
d head-on

Explanation:

The broadside shot provides the largest target area for vital organs (such as the heart and lungs) in larger game animals like elk or bear. This increases the likelihood of a quick, humane kill. A rear - end shot may lead to a less effective hit as it targets less vital areas. A quartering - toward shot can be risky as the bullet path may be obstructed by bones or other non - vital structures. A head - on shot is very difficult due to the small target area and the potential for the animal to move its head, resulting in a miss or a non - fatal wound.

Answer:

C. broadside
