Deflection (ballistics)
text:
Deflection shooting is a technique of shooting ahead of a moving target, also known as leading the target, so that the projectile will "intercept" and collide with the target at a predicted point. This technique is necessary when the target will have significantly displaced its position during the time the projectile would take to reach the target, which can become the case over very long distances, due to fast moving targets, hunting a running animal, or while using relatively slow projectiles.
