What factor has signification impact on firearms maximum projectile range?

The maximum projectile range of firearms is significantly impacted by the angle of elevation at which the projectile is fired. Typically, an angle of around 30 to 45 degrees yields the greatest distance due to optimal balance between vertical and horizontal velocity components. Additionally, factors such as the projectile's initial velocity, air resistance, and environmental conditions like wind and altitude also play crucial roles in determining the effective range.
