Put simply, at a hundred yards and a 30% slope you are effectively shooting 90 yards (actually 87). The difference in bullet strike is going to be maybe an inch high, not enough to miss a whole Deer.

Depends on velocity and other factors but the 87% is a constant for a 30% slope. Your effectively shooting 90 yards (or 69 yards if it is a 80 yard shoot).
