Projectile motion and angles questions

For a projectile launched at different angles, does anyone know what the effect of these are on the accuracy of the projectile? for example, does time of flight determine the accuracy? BTW I am measuring 0-90 degrees above the horizontal. Thanks

When a projectile has a longer flight time there is higher probability that its path will be disturbed by wind and other atmospheric sources.

Wind does not have the same direction. It can very depending on altitude.
