[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 1759667, member: 40852"] I think modern ballistic calculators use numerical integration to calculate the path of the bullet. This means you should be able to enter line of sight distance and angle and it will consider how the gravity is pulling on the bullet over the entire distance. Using the horizontal equivalent to estimate bullet drop is simplification and has some error associated with it. [/QUOTE]
