[QUOTE="kiwi3006, post: 300531, member: 8927"] Hey Michael, I knew this explanation was going to be confusing. The crosswind was 90 degree right to left at 10 mph AND was coming UP a 26 degree slope. I allowed for the right to left component but forgot to allow for the wind coming UP the slope lifting the bullet. A 10 mph wind coming UP from under the bullet at 26 degrees should give about 1.5 - 2 MOA lift over 615 yds ( a 90 degree 10 mph wind gives 3 MOA at 615 yds). Hope this helps to clarify the situation. Stu. [/QUOTE]
