[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 539839, member: 30902"] You assume incorrectly. It's called getting information one piece at a time. It's easy to get the declination constant for any given location and then to correct from magnentic north to true north. [URL]http://www.solarpathfinder.com/magnetic[/URL] If the shots are not being fired along the north south axis then whatever Corriolis affect corrections are not going to be the same. [IMG]http://abyss.uoregon.edu/~js/images/coriolis_effect.gif[/IMG] If the spin of the bullet is in the opposite direction of the deflection it's an add. If it's with it the correction is subtracted. If the shots are directly in line with the direction the earth is spinning there is nothing to correct with respect to the Coriolis affect at all. The earth spins on a N-S axis thus the effect is West-East. [/QUOTE]
