Target Heights Down Range and Scope Settings

[Turkeytider]

Happy 4th to everybody! A question that will no doubt show a basic lack of knowledge on my part. I`m old, so I really don`t care, LOL!
Scenario and question: I have two identical targets at 500 yards, side by side, but one is 6" higher than the other. My scope`s elevation setting is such that I am hitting the lower of the two targets. The question: If I shift to the higher target, should I expect that the elevation setting that was hitting the lower target will be the same for the higher target ? Thanks.

Yes. Your elevation adjustment will only move with an increase in range or large change in elevation.

Yes it will be the same for both targets.

Where are you aiming?

Where are you aiming?

Not real sure what you mean (? ), Aiming at the center of each target.

Aiming at the center of each target.

And where are your impacts on each target?
They should be at the same location on each target if you do your job.
Moving from the lower target to the higher target you will have to aim higher thus if your aim is good the bullet impacts should be in the same location for both targets.
