Yeah no kidding. Sure the ballistic arc looks different at an angle but that is not due to gravity changing.

Agreed. A down slope shot travels a modicum faster than a level shot because of the effect of gra\vity. Thus requiring less elevation compensation. I think it's called...angular momentum. Unless, of course, I'm wrong.
