[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 1211232, member: 50867"] Up until recently I've been holding for it. That has worked fairly well out to about 700 yards where my spin drift is under .3 moa but by the time I get out to 1K I'm dealing with twice that amount and my scores have been disappointing. I'm trying to learn to remember to dial in the drift at the same time I dial in the elevation (memory isn't as young as it once was) and the learning curve is long and low. Because drift is categorically a "constant" (in the same way bullet path [U]should[/U] be) once I get the dope sheet adjusted to deliver the proper data I should do much better and it'll be nice to limit my concerns to wind. Just have to find a windless day to work with it; windless days are rare around here. Do I dial in wind? No[B] ![/B] Wind is a variable. IMO, trying to make a fixed setting work for variable conditions doesn't make sense. [/QUOTE]
