Even though I know I would be capable of the shot, I'd let it go.

Generally, I don't take the FIRST shot past 100 or so yards
but the other factor is the light fading so IF it didn't drop, you are limited in the time available to follow it up and I would hate it to become Lion feed.

This is just my HO.

Others may take the shot which is fine by me if that is what they choose, each to their own.
