[QUOTE="dfanonymous, post: 2974673, member: 97050"] It affects the bullet at its earliest point, and in which the bullet angle never goes back to its original course really. It’s also the most accurate reading you have, since it’s where you can measure it to the mph with the likes of a kestrel. It’s a baseline reading. Looking at mirage and foliage blowing 1200y away is an estimation in a certain percentile of accuracy depending on conditions and skill. It mostly certainly is important in the first 1/3 if the shot. That last 1/3 the bullet is moving the slowest. Depending how close to transonic one is at that last 3rd, a differentiating wind can certainly have an offset on the shot to a degree. As said, we in PRS don’t get spotters. Yet, you’re scored and graded and qualified against others to 1/2 moa of accuracy at beyond 1000y…in wind.. [/QUOTE]
