[QUOTE="73driver, post: 2345382, member: 36473"] Agreed, understanding the physics behind the calculations is immensely helpful. Many early posts gave great explanations and the Video posted in post #98 from the NSSF by Ryan Cleckner pretty well covered it in the first six minutes. After the video post there were some inaccurate statements and verbose/not useful posts. You added wind to the mix and that is the wild card. During my shooting practice wind as light as 3 mph was pushing my bullet 5 inches off at 540 yards. Add in terrain features that can swirl the wind or generate up drafts then you get conditions hard to account for generating unexpected outcomes. [/QUOTE]
