The bullet "rises" because it is fired at a slightly upward trajectory to get it zeroed.


Being fired at a slightly upwards trajectory does not equal "rises". Once a bullet leaves the barrel it begins to drop. Unless you have wings with the flaps down on your bullet, it is impossible for it to rise on it's own.

Not trying to be an arse or argue about this but I have heard many times over the years someone say their bullet was rising and it simply just is not true.

Just aim and shoot. It isnt off enough to matter.

Here is a drawing I just whipped up.



This is why everyone thinks a bullet rises. Truly, it never rises, guns are just pointed up slightly so we can hit targets far away.

If you leveled out the barrel and not the scope, youd get this.



Tips are not necessary.

If anyone needs fullsize copies I have them saved as jpeg and can email them out for use in presentations and such. Just let me know if you want them.

If you are going to be that close on the ground do the obvious and ambush with a knife or spear.
