[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 304886, member: 4191"] Thanks for the reference to that post. I had previously read that article by Shawn, and articles by others also, that described the slight effect of crosswinds on verticle POI. I knew the affect was small enough to be disregarded, and I've never seen anyone attempt to mathematically model or predict it for practical application, even for the longest of long-range hunting shots. The effect is so slight that it would be lost in the background noise of all the other more significant parameters, parameters that can be predicted to help ensure first-shot hits on long-range targets.
