I'm trying to get this. Rate bullet falls after shot constant. Further out you sight in for. The more to a point you increase mid range trajectory.I mean its still going to have the same rate of fall right. I have always understood point blank range, to be distance you can hold dead on target,and not have bullet too high mid range, or too low at target. to miss target with dead on hold.
Or are you saying, by mounting scope higher, you decrease the distance between the 2 points where trajectory crosses, or intersects with line of sight.
Cause if your saying, the second convergence, LOS and trajectory is point blank range, I've been wrong for about 40yrs. Not that, that couldn't be possible.I was wrong another time.
Wait if you only use 1 bullet weight, and you say with 200 yd zero, at 100yd, midrange, distance above line of sight is 4", optimum scope height would be 2 ", Half of 4, 2" over LOS, 2" under LOS will still be point blank range for that bullet. Right. I'm getting a headache.
It seems like in my mind I am seeing with scope mounted as low as possible, the closer, to muzzle,, first LOS and trajectory converge, the second convergence, LOS and trajectory would be further away. actually increasing distance between the two points. And maybe PBR
Plus different bullet weights would be closer to having the same trajectory.
I'm just about to not care anymore, and if your already there, sorry.
Did I just say the same thing 3 different ways. I might need a picture for this.
