[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1645263, member: 9096"] I can't offer anything on specifics, but when I'm shooting, I use some of the theory.. if you're shooting straight up or straight down, the only thing that's affecting the difference between where you're aiming and where you hit is how the gun is sighted.. bullet drop no longer matters because that's not in the same plane ... so height the scope is above the barrel and the sighting yardage is what makes the most difference.. Assuming you don't have much bullet drop at your sighting distance, if you're shooting vertically, at twice the sighting distance you're going to have to aim low by about the distance your scope is over the muzzle [/QUOTE]
