"To raise the POI > use heavier bullets and lower velocity."
Is it "Weight" or "Velocity" that does the trick?
For example; will less powder with the same weight bullet raise the point of impact?
will same charge, but heavier bullet do the same
or
Is it a combination that has to be arrived at by trial and error
Is the Physics of it:
Lower velocity = More time in barrel = Greater lift to trajectory caused by muzzel flip.
with
A heavier bullet (all other things being equal) yielding a lower velocity.
The "Cowboys" who have to deal with fixed sights
Have a theory about adjusting POI both in elevation AND azimuth by varying the load..
I cant recall how it goes though.
Can you offer any advice on that?
