Still investigating cause of death, but it appears to be some sort of puncture wound in the neck region

    Also, I don’t know if people train for downward sloped shots. He may have over/under corrected.

      Not usually in my experience. Almost all target shooting is on relatively flat ranges. Especially not for ranges that short.

      For those that don’t know, when firing down the slope the effect of gravity decreases the bullets velocity loss. So the bullet transverses the distance in less time and drops less over a given distance.

      When firing up a slope the bullet loses velocity due to gravity. So it drops more due to the extra time it takes for the bullet to transverse the distance.
