When a sniper shoots someone they if at a longer range.. need to first adjust for curvature of the earth using the  Pythagorean theorem, that calculates to an average curvature of 7.98 inches per mile or approximately 8 inches per mile (squared). The distance to the horizon in miles from height of an observer is approximately equal to 1.23 times the square root of the height in feet., if the earth was flat they would only have to account for drop..
