[QUOTE="LRNut, post: 1844245, member: 3230"] My favorite line is one repeated (but I must admit, not lately) by guys like Boddington et al: the reason a bullet hits high when shooting uphill or downhill is that the bullet is only affected by gravity over the horizontal distance of travel. If that were true, a bullet launched straight up would go into orbit. The biggest problem I have with most writers is that they are journalism majors and are basically illiterate when it comes to engineering and physics. [/QUOTE]
