[QUOTE="steeltraps, post: 974883, member: 74752"] When shooting valley to valley wind eddies and thermals can have a great effect on bullet flight. Just because you can see the wind or measure it up close does not mean its not doing something different at mid range. The wind that you CANT see is often the reason that our programs seam way off. You may often get strange winds from valleys. I have shot before at rocks In North Alabama and the wind AT my position be 2 mph and the wind at 1600 yards , not even be moving ANY leaves on the trees but the wind in between causes me to me WAY off. Like 3 moa at 1600 yards. Hope this helps:D [/QUOTE]
