[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 978326, member: 50867"] I agree that a slight difference in elevation over 100 - 200 yards shouldn't have a dramatic effect. But it's still relative. The greater the difference in elevation the greater the error factor. Rule of thumb, as I learned it, was as long as the degree of slope is less thatn 10% no correction should be necessary. So if your 100 yard target isn't more than 30 feet above or below below your shooting position you're good to go. [/QUOTE]
