Straight Answer

ANSWER:

It all depends on a lot of variables
like what hemisphere we're in,
the season, night or day,
the line of sight, wind speed and
direction, the fact that all rifles
have a right-handed twist in the barrel,
so, the bullet will eventually drift
to the right over distance.
Then there's the fact that the earth
is not flat, plus the Coriolis effect,
and the earth is spinning on its axis
and rotating around the sun while
orbiting around the center of the galaxy,
and don't forget that we are hurtling through
space at a speed of approximately
67,000 miles per hour.
