[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 7065, member: 8947"] How to you feel about trigonometry? The bullet only cares about the horizontal component of distance to the target. So if your backstop is downhill, you will need to find one that is further away then the range you want to shoot. If my math is correct, that would be range distance desired divided by Cos(angle of declination)times visual distance. R = cos(deg) X line of sight distance downhill. Jerry [/QUOTE]
