[QUOTE="rse69, post: 2337348, member: 85657"] SWhooting up/down hill is both the same. What the needed piece of information is True Ballistic/Horizontal range (Many rangefinders will provide both). The issue is described in a triangle. The True range is the hypotenuse of the triangle, the true range (in which your bullet is going to experience gravity) is the adjacent leg or the horizontal/ballistic range. If using the true range (hypotenuse leg), your impact will be high. If you dont have a range finder that provides ballistic range then the answer is (True Range * cos(angle(inclination/declination)) ). [/QUOTE]
