[QUOTE="Richard338, post: 33384, member: 1537"] Brent, My thinking was that since the two effects aren't coupled (coriolis is just due to the reference coordinate frame) they can just be treated additively. The ranges I use are facing North so there is no vertical Coriolis effect. I agree that the spin drift is somewhat greater in magnitude, but it might be nice to have a smaller combined correction. Also, the data in McCoys book shows that the horizontal Coriolis effect is essentially independent of the direction of fire. (At least to 1500 yrds) [/QUOTE]
