    Question about the rifle

    ManicManiac's sighting line is spot on for how you want to see your "sight" alignment when aiming.  So just a little lower as you noted in your first picture.  I've also found that distance is a huge variant when shooting the rifle.  You'd think the rifle would have good distance, better than the bow for example, but not the case in this game.
    To borrow a cliche', ..."don't fire til you see the whites of their eyes..."

    Also best to shoot from a crouched position, it just seems to be more accurate that way.  I've found that aiming down on something seems to work better that shooting uphill for example and it really helps to have your target be in the center of the screen.  If I am hunting the bear or the moose for example, I like to flank them and climb up on a rock ledge or on a semi felled tree and shoot down at them from the crouched position in relative safety.  I might take a few scrapes jumping down, but that's minor compared to being mauled or trampled.  

    Good luck and good hunting!

    crouched position? Are you sure it works?

    It can also help to only hunt a bear in a place where you know for a fact you can get away if it charges.  A car, tractor, fishing hut with a door--all of these are good ways to escape a charging bear.

    Or if you have the nerves to do so, it's possible to run to the side just before the charging bear gets to you, and circle-strafe it until it eventually bleeds out and dies in front of you.

    Is it really possible to save yourself by instant moving just before charge as you said? I wanted to correct it because, i'll try that and curious in advance.

    Killing bears used to be risky.  Now it’s total cake. 
    Let’s take this step by step:

    1)find bear

    2) build a campfire in front of bear a ways ahead.
    3) When he gets in range, shoot bear.  I usually aim for the head or just above it in the neck.  
    4)stand still behind fire while bear charges

    5)when he stops, standing there, shoot him again.  Make this one count: headshot if possible, try for an eye. 
    6) either he drops dead or he runs off after this.  He won’t have much life left so track him!  He won’t go far before he bleeds out. 
     

     

     

    it does a circle around the campfire and catch you anyway?
