Which of the following should you do to ensure you can take a safe shot?

Shoot quickly before the game moves
Ensure the barrel is clear of obstructions
Use the highest magnification on your scope
Fire a warning shot to clear the area

The correct answer is: Ensure the barrel is clear of obstructions

To ensure you can take a safe shot, it is important to check and make sure that your barrel is clear of any obstructions. This will prevent any unexpected malfunctions or accidents. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not address the potential danger of a blocked barrel. Shooting quickly without first checking the barrel could cause a misfire, using the highest magnification on your scope may not necessarily guarantee safety, and firing a warning shot is not a reliable method of clearing the barrel. Thus, option B is the best choice.
