[QUOTE="ss7mm, post: 97116, member: 5"] What we need to remember is that the effect of wind on the bullet from the muzzle to 300 yards effects the bullet for the full 900 yards of flight. The bullet doesn't immediately go back to the line of sight when it passes 300 yards. It continues at the angle imparted by the wind from muzzle to 300 yards. The effect of the wind on the bullet from 600-900 effects it for only 300 yards, not 900 yards. I'd also go with the opinions that it makes more difference from muzzle to 300 yards. [/QUOTE]
