[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 172552, member: 8947"] [b]Shoot in the wind[/b] DF, when the wind blows, GO SHOOT. It is a hoot and much more fun then shooting in the calm. We know our rifles will hit the target at some outrageous distances. Now the fun part of driving that bullet in the wind is why I build accurate rifles. Yes, 308 shooters do dial in ALOT for windage at LR. Big reason why I don't shoot the 308 in LR hunting situations. It is a ballistic dog. In the same winds, it will drift 40 to 75% MORE then a fast 6.5 or 7mm. That takes alot of skill to drive well in gusty air. But that's the whole point. Get out there and shoot when conditions are not ideal. It will not take you long to hit your target. With that wonderful MP8 reticle, alot quicker then someone with a reg duplex. Dope, aim, shoot, miss, figure where on the reticle the shot landed, adjust by moving that point on the reticle to your target, shoot, hit. Yes, its that easy, that fast and that accurate. I think you might have a bit less then 180mins in the vertical portion of the reticle though. You would need 90 hash marks as I believe they are on 2 MOA spacings. however, it is alot and I really like the design. Just no money to buy :( Jerry [/QUOTE]
