Quick question for those with more Muzzleloading experience.
How much if any effect on bulled drop does the elevation have when shooting muzzleloader. Is it anything like shooting a rifle where it’s negligible at hunting distances?

When hunting with rifle i use range at around 6,000’ to zero. And use Hornady app to adjust temp/humidity/elevation when hunting/shooting, which takes places between 3,000’ up to 10,000’ish. I know that Temps make biggest diff for me and only at longer distances. How relevant is this in muzzy?

I’m zeroing at 9,500’ with muzzy this year. But I’ll be hunting 3,000 to 6,000 later in the fall and winter.

If I don’t plan on shooting past 200-250m max. Should not even overthink this/worry about no matter what temps/elevations are?
Thnx.
