[QUOTE="WildcatB, post: 194006, member: 10379"] [b].. found the answer[/b] Got this from [url=http://www.exteriorballistics.com]exterior ballistics[/url] which is home to Sierra's ballistic software: 5.2 Effects of Altitude and Uphill/Downhill Shooting Sierra's computer program for exterior ballistics calculates precise bullet trajectories at any altitude and for any firing angle, uphill or downhill. The program not only accounts for the altitude of the shooter, but it also calculates the change in drag that occurs as the bullet changes altitude after it leaves the muzzle. With this capability we can see exactly what effects altitude and firing angle have on the trajectory of any bullet. [/QUOTE]
