The speed at which a bullet drops due to gravity depends on multiple factors, including the caliber of the bullet, the initial velocity at which it was fired, and the angle at which it was shot. Generally, bullets drop at a rate of about 9.8 m/s² due to gravity. Wind resistance can also influence the rate of drop.

When a rifle is fired horizontally the bullet leaves the barrel and doesnt drop at all for the first 35 meters of flight Is this true?

No, this statement is not true. When a rifle is fired horizontally, the bullet immediately begins to drop due to gravity as soon as it leaves the barrel. The rate of drop will depend on the muzzle velocity of the bullet and the distance it has traveled.


What is the bullet drop for a 180 grain bullet shot from a super red hawk with a 9.5 inch barrel and a suggested O in range for a scoped?

The bullet drop will vary based on factors such as caliber, muzzle velocity, and distance to the target. For a 180 grain bullet shot from a Super Red Hawk with a 9.5 inch barrel, using a scope for sighting can help improve accuracy and account for bullet drop at longer ranges. It is recommended to zero the scope at a specific distance (e.g., 100 yards) to minimize bullet drop over different distances.


How fast would you have to be to dodge a bullet?

Dodging a bullet is very difficult due to the speed of a bullet, which can range from around 1,400 to 1,800 miles per hour. To have a chance of dodging a bullet, you would need to react and move in a fraction of a second, which is nearly impossible for most humans.


How much will a 30-06 bullet drop at 350 yds if sighted in at 200?

The answer will vary with the weight/ velocity of the bullet. Using an average velocity 165 gr bullet, a 30-06 rifle zeroed at 200 yds will strike ABOUT 15 inches below line of sight at 350 yds.


Can a bullet be shot down with another bullet?

If you have incredible aim and like lightening fast reflexes, then i guess its possible, but i would say its pretty much impossible, or you would have to get like 1 and 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 lucky to stop a bullet with another bullet
