[QUOTE="4xforfun, post: 242407, member: 9172"] I believe that this is called the "magnus" effect. I thought about that last night. I knew I had just read about it not long ago....there it was...In the PS book on 1000 yard shooting....in the section on military sniping at 1000 yards+. I have taken my gun from 300 to 1000 and back forty times at minimum this year (I always dial back down to my 300 yard zero after a day om matches) and I don't ever remember being off by much....but, then again...I never shot 1 K in any windless days all summer, and had to always dial in some amount of windage. So, it could be!!! Next chance I get I am going to shoot a windless day and shoot 100, 300, 600, and 1000 without dialing ANY wind....just to see. [/QUOTE]
