[QUOTE="700, post: 29045, member: 674"] Jay 1 inch drop is way to much for it to have been head wind when firing at 200 to 300 yards. More likely it was just a statistical variation in your shooting style or load. Tail wind rises the bullet and head wind drops the bullet. Tail and Head Winds usually only have an appreciable affect after 300 yards. Even then the wind would have to be strong and your rifle very accurate before you would notice the difference.
