Who is using a turret

A turret implies rotational motion. (What I assume you are referring to as "side to side".) Up and down would be one of two things: Changing the elevation of the shooter OR changing the angle of launch. I also am taking the liberty of assuming you are referring to the latter and changing the angle of launch.

We're going to use a shooter that can change the angle of elevation, but we're not installing a turret because:
A. The mechanical complexity isn't worth the gains
B. We can get the same accuracy from physically turning our robot with gyro feedback as we would get with a pivoting turret.
