Extreme Long Range Hunting & Shooting (ELR)
why do shots drop more when shooting at a small incline at extreme range?

[QUOTE="Augustus, post: 680420, member: 10142"] I use Atrag it does not have a neg or *** slope function on it. As stated before I have shot the same range at 2000 plus yds from both ends. Uphill one way and downhill the other, the drops are the same. I have not used the software you have and I don't feel qualified to argue with the solutions generated. I hope your software is FOS because if a 5 degree slope has that much difference in uphill vs downhill think what a much steeper angle would do. I shot the 375 at 2500 yds and used the LOS distance, turned out the target was 4 to 5 degrees uphill. The center of the group was .2 mils high. I haven't shot any steep angles at ELR so I don't have any firsthand data. [/QUOTE]
