In terms of physics, a bullet will start to drop as soon as it leaves the barrel.  All objects are accelerated by gravity at the same rate regardless of the weight/mass of the projectile or the speed.  What impacts drop versus distance is the velocity.  If you shot on perfectly flat ground with the rifle barrel perfectly parallel with the flat ground, the bullet would hit the ground at the same time a marble or any other object would hit the ground from the same height as the end of the barrel.  Sounds funny but the laws of physics show that to be true.
