Hi Godo,
>No, due dispersion inducted by guns alone.
Hm, I fail to understand how that would increase the mil size of the dispersion downrange.
(It could be a geometric effect due to the parabolic trajectories, but that affects only elevation, and would be noticable only far beyond the ranges we're interested in.)
In short, I think the gunfire should disperse in a cone, while the way I understood your statement, it should disperse in a trumpet shape with dispersion increasing downrange.
Is that idea correct?
