I addressed the downward trajectory in great detail in this thread. The effect of shooting downhill is to make a bullet land high of the point of aim. The same effect occurs when shooting uphill.
This only makes worse the fact that Frazier testified the Carcano was hitting 2.5 inches high of a bullseye at 15 yards. As I showed by mathematics, this equates to hitting almost 17 inches high at 100 yards, on level ground. Shooting a rifle this badly sighted in from the 6th floor would make the bullet go even higher.

Mr. HILL. The right rear portion of his head was missing. It was lying in the rear seat of the car. His brain was exposed. There was blood and bits of brain all over the entire rear portion of the car. Mrs. Kennedy was completely covered with blood. There was so much blood you could not tell if there had been any other wound or not, except for the one large gaping wound in the right rear portion of the head.
