[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 940834, member: 13632"] Your correct that in the amount of wind drift will be higher at lower bullet velocities BUT when you take into account the amount of time the bullet travels on the path set by the early wind it is a greater value because it has agreater time to travel. So a .4 in windage movement at the first 100 yards over the course of 1500 yards is much greater in the end that a 2 inch move at the last 100 yards. Yes the last deflected more but over the time of flight the close range adds more total value. [/QUOTE]
