But the mind is the second thing to go!
Good thing I forgot what the first thing was....

This is entirely dependent upon the range you are sighting at. In most handguns, the sight angle is set so the barrel is DOWNWARD, not up, at the moment of firing. This is because recoil pulls the firearm upwards. The longer the barrel, the more the firearm is displaced upward vs the aiming point, and the more you have to depress the sight angle to compensate for it.
In regards to arguing with an E6....I tried to use newtonian physics...
Probably the best plan.At this point I'm about to say "screw it" and let them be ignorant.

And they really fly through a 1:7" twist barrel....so in a right hand twist barrel ,bullets rise and in a left hand twist they take a dive. sounds good to me
