    Ok. Still not convinced a typical bush rifle (say a 308win shooting a 150gn bullet at 2700fps) or any rifle/bullet combination for that matter, can make the bullet leave the barrel and only rise 1.5"(about the mounting height of your average scope) to get to 100m, and not cross the line of sight well before that). I was hoping a ballistics expert would enter the thread with another graph. I would be happy to be proved wrong.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
