[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 2266976, member: 40852"] It's been a while since I read Bryan Litz's book, "Applied Ballistics for Long Range Shooting", but in the chapter on wind drift he talks about Dwell Time. Dwell Time is basically the actual TOF of the bullet minus the TOF in a vacuum. Then take this Dwell Time and multiply it by the wind speed in feet/sec and you get bullet drift in feet. Then you convert feet to inches. [/QUOTE]
