" Would the rain change the bullets trajectory after hitting a raindrop or does it just go so fast that it doesnt hit the rain?"
in my opinion a bullet can travel fast enough to not hit a raindrop, however the likely hood of the bullet(including the air cushion around the bullet) colliding with a raindrop within the trajectory of a long distance shot is high. now when such an event occurs, there will be an effect. the question isn't as stated, but rather how much of an effect, just because we can't measure the effect doesn't mean that it did not happen. honestly it would take thousands of rounds, thousands of high speed cameras, and a really expensive sprinkler system to test the ideas contained in this thread.
