[QUOTE="milo-2, post: 1716986, member: 33622"] Simple version, the earth rotates west to east. In essence, your target is always moving, so bullet flight time dictates just how much it moves. Don't get too worried, if shooting due north or south, it is an inch and half at 1000 yards. Even at 2500 yards, it is under 5". That is why it doesn't come up much. Some claim vertical discrepancies when shooting in certain directions, but once you start shooting so far, over 1K, way more things to concern yourself with. If you shoot off a phone app, most likely you can enable the feature, if you do, just play with it, shooting in all directions. Disable spin drift and make sure no wind is entered too. [/QUOTE]
