[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 382314, member: 505"] Buffalobob, I am no guru on this by any means. I am just using my physics and applied math degrees from your alma mater to try and figure it out. I also have shot a lot in the wind. I know headwind and tailwind is very slight and uphill and downhill have a much greater influence. Twist also is a slight effect. I can visualize a baseball curve ball at 70 mph how much it breaks and then think about the rate of spin on a bullet at 2300 mph. Amazing it shoots as straight as it does in the wind. [/QUOTE]
