why, when you sight in on level ground your poi changes when you are shooting up/downhill???? do you aim high or low when shooting down/uphill???

See you got it 😆
Ta-da!

I think I see page 5 in this threads future… 😆

You tell me 😀
Take a shot at a branch, pinecone or leaf and let us know 😀

Anything closer than your zero point will be lower than the cross hairs but
the POI will still be higher than it would have been for a level shot…
Up to a point until you have to hold over again due to scope to bore difference….
Sheesh, so many things to remember, its a wonder I fill my bag….. 😆

This has been a labor of love!
The projectile has similar forces acting on it as your car does going up a hill without the gas peddle being pressed.
So when traveling up hill it takes longer to arrive. This additional time translates into more time for gravity to work on the pellet.
The inverse is true for down hill… taking less time to arrive on target.
But other factors are at play including velocity, distance, angle, wind, and the ballistic coefficient of your projectile. In short; go shoot some tin cans and “know your gun”.
