[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 191289, member: 2852"] I have speedy's wind chart/bullet impact chart taped to my pedestal rest and use it for teaching others a lot. But in the real world of BR, seldom do you have a truly horizontal wind to the ground. There is almost always some component of vertical wind or thermal rise and it can be severe enough to overpower any horizontal wind. For instance, when shooting in a 3 oclock wind, it should push the bullet left and slightly up. But if the vertical component is half of the horizontal component, the bullet will most likely go left and lower. But it still helps to have a wind chart with you for those days when the wind does what it is supposed to! [/QUOTE]
