A related matter I have wondered about.
The gravitational effect can be calculated or approximated, but how about the effect of time of flight? The bullet will take time to reach the target depending on its velocity along the actual line of fire, not the horizontal distance. Will that not at least partly counteract the reduced gravitiational effect?
