[QUOTE="load, post: 499260, member: 22789"] heres a quick and easy way to visually explain whats happening. take a tape measure extend it out horizantally and make note were it breaks over. now take that same tape and pull it out on an angle both up hill and down hill. then note how far HORIZANTALLY it is when it breaks. you'll get more tape out but it will break in reletively the same horizantal distance heres the actual math for the riflemans rule [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/1/6/2/1628a3255a3de714bf56831a8a0f841d.png[/IMG] most simplify it to cosine x distance others use thier drop tables for the distance to target and use cosine x drop the result is fairly close to each other less than 1 minute of angle. gun) [/QUOTE]
