There shouldn't be any bullet drop when aiming downward at the range he was at. If anything, it should hit higher than the crosshairs. When a rifle is zeroed, the optics are set so that the bullet "falls" into the crosshairs at a set range. With physics being what they are, it means the bullet leaves the barrel going slightly upward for the parabolic arc of the bullet to make this work. So when aiming at a downward angle, the parabolic arc offsets the drop.
Regardless, pros don't go for head/neck shots. They aim for center mass.
I was just going off range, not angle. You're going to see slight drop at 150-200 yards. But, yes, angle changes things a bit.
Correct, but that's a whole other issue, because you could say there's zero bullet drop at 2000 yards, if zeroed to that. Point is, at 150 yards, you don't even need to zero, because drop is negligible. Of course you still should zero, but the impact of bullet drop isn't much either way.
I haven't confirmed, but apparently Charlie Kirk was wearing body armor, and the shot actually did hit center mass, before sadly ricocheting up to his neck.
