[QUOTE="BK6x47L, post: 710620, member: 22296"] With a handgun, time spent in the barrel corresponds to how high or low it impacts on paper. A slower bullet will generally impact higher due to the longer time spent in the barrel during recoil. The barrel/or handgun tilts up during recoil more for the slower bullet before it has time to leave the barrel. As said, all bets are off for a rifle. Harmonics, nodes and all other things factor in more because the rifle itself remains relatively stationary and moves more rearward than upward. But for handguns, typically the slower bullet impacts higher on the target. Brad [/QUOTE]
