A .50 magnum has a muzzle velocity of about 420 meters per second (1480 feet per second). The time for a .50 caliber bullet to travel one mile at a constant speed of 1400feet per second is around four seconds. After four seconds, the bullet will have dropped around 256 feet.
In reality, the bullet is slowed down due to air resistance, and takes longer to travel one mile (thus it drops further). Also note that in theory, the caliber of the bullet does not determine how far it drops after traveling one mile. The muzzle velocity is the key parameter in determining this.

How much does the horizon drop per mile on earth?
An object will fall 4.9 meters in the first second [d=0.5*g*t^2]. Orbital velocity is 7,700 m/s (both at sea level) [V=(g*m/R)^0.5]. By definition, at orbital velocity the earth falls away at the same rate as you travel. So, 7.7 kilometers from where you are standing the earth has 'dropped away' 4.9 meters. Re-calculating for 1 kilometer: d=0.5*9.8*(1/7.7)^2 = 0.08 meters.

What is drop on a gun?
The BULLET drop is the pull of gravity on the bullet as it is shot, resulting in the bullet lowering in altitude over a long distance. This is what long-distance shooters have to account for on their scopes. Different types of bullets with different weights, sizes, and shapes, as well as the barrel length and rifling ratios, affect how much the drop will be.
How much is the bullet drop of a 338 Lapua Magnum?
Depends on muzzle velocity, projectile weight and distance.
How much will the bullet drop in2700 ft 150grain 30-6?
That depends on the type of bullet, the initial velocity, and the angle at which it is fired. A ballistics calculator is the best way to find the answer.

How much does a 30-06 180 gr. bullet drop in 250yds.?
The bullet drop for a .30-06 Springfield with a 180-grain bullet at 250 yards can vary based on several factors, including the specific load, barrel length, and environmental conditions. However, on average, you can expect a bullet drop of approximately 10 to 12 inches when zeroed at 100 yards. For more precise calculations, using a ballistic calculator with specific parameters is recommended.
How much will a 300 bullet drop at 500 yards?
That is going to vary based on what kind of "300" you are using, what the type and weight of the bullet is, what your initial velocity is, and at what distance you are sighted in for your far zero.
How much Will a 243 bullet drop at 300 yards?
Depends on the loading, and the zeroed range. An 80 grain bullet zeroed at 100 yards will be about 10.2 inches below the line of sight at 300.
How much does a338 lapua hornaday 285gr bullet drop 1000yds?
If zeroed at 100 yds, the bullet will drop ABOUT 275 inches below the line of sight at 1,000 yards. At that range, large number of variables including the muzzle velocity, air pressure, temperature and humidity.
How much will a 30-06 bullet drop at 400 yards?
The bullet drop of a .30-06 cartridge at 400 yards can vary based on factors such as the specific load, bullet weight, and environmental conditions. On average, a .30-06 round may experience a drop of approximately 24 to 30 inches at that distance. It's essential to consult ballistic charts specific to the ammunition being used for more precise calculations.
