As far as the trajectory of the chambered round for this set up I am curious to know how it differs

Weight, grain, rifling, barrel length, where the sight sets on the weapon compared to the front sight post all factor in not the mention the shooter being training on how a weapon shoots or what a 50/300 zero means
There have been 18Bs on those quals for quite a few years. While I wasn’t there for the incident in question, I have worked with the Ugandans quite a bit. Their memory is about as long as their hair. You can teach them the same basic task every day for a week and they still won’t remember it the next day. Them not knowing how to zero a weapon is not a good indicator of whether or not documents were falsified. Not to mention that the Ugandans don’t usually make any sight corrections themselves. Instructors do that for them as basic math for sight adjustments is way beyond their comprehension
