Well, why don't you just cut and paste a few links that support this statement. I couldn't find a single one myself, perhaps you will have better results.

In the meantime, here are a few that refute your statement.

"This post is for all you gun enthusiasts that think you know all there is to know about guns. It is especially for those of you who think that a bullet rises as it comes out of the barrel. It doesn't! I dont care how long you've been hunting or shooting or what. The freakin bullet doesn't rise as it comes out of the barrel.  As soon as it exits the barrel the bullet begins to fall due to gravity. It never rises past the axis of the barrel."http://www.chuckhawks.com/bullet_trajectory.htm

"... bullet never rises above the axis of the barrel."

http://www.sniperforums.com/forum/cartridges-calibers/2746-myth-rising-bullet.html

"... any projectile, be it free upon exit, is always falling."

"A bullet fired parallel to the ground begins to fall the instant it exits from the muzzle."

Don't bother bring up the Magnus Effect, a little Google study shows that this only makes bullets wander left or right, depending on the direction of the rifling in the barrel.

Your move.
