The question is obvioulsy flawed, but what he's asking is one of two things.

1 - What is the maximum point blank range of the gun/caliber? or,
2 - After what distance will a bullet shot from this gun no longer fly "straight".

I'm guessing it is the first option, and I think the MPBR of most '.06 rounds is about 275 yds.

No, the sights or scope are at an angle to the barrel. The barrel is straight. line of sight is straight, bullet path is an arc.
Yeah, that's what I meant. Thanks for stating it better than I did.

Actually the line of sight is straight to the point of aim.

The line of the bore is angled up in relation to the line of sight.
