That is probably one of the hardest shots there is since it is rare in the way most of us in US hunt, especially in an upland setting. Its also a hard shot to safely set up at a sporting clay range, so you just don't see it too much. Unless you hunt a lot of those Continental Pheasant hunts. You may see it some in a dove field as well. Its just a tough shot to pull through and lose sight of bird and then pull the trigger. I found it was just better for me to let em pass and get em as they are even or going away if you its a safe shot, but then you could be faced with one of the hardest shots.

I think the absolute hardest shot that even some English shooting experts agree on is a driven pheasant that is tailing and quartering away from you. See an awful lot of powder burned on those misses on those.

Think Station 8 Low House Rich - I break those birds shooting low gun(at my waist) with some regularity.

While hunting in Maine this fall my pooch went on a perfect point and the grouse flushed flying dead straight away from me down a open old logging road. I pulled up and the first round failed to fire, so I quickly fired the second barrel only to have that round fail to fire. After cussing the loads I opened the gun to change them only to find I had failed to load my gun
