Err, no offense, Rob, but they're of great concern.  If I have to worry
about point of aim, accurate ranging and bullet drop when I'm out deer
hunting, I can't imagine that a military sniper working at several times the
ranges I hunt at would deem them to be not a concern.  They can be planned
for, yeah, and they can be adjusted for, and it's not a big deal.  But the
bullet drop and point of aim are certainly concerns.

(My God.  I'm arguing with Other Rob.  About /guns/.  I must be feeling
either very ambitious or damn full of myself.  *g*)
