[QUOTE="eastbank, post: 1761510, member: 107151"] i saw 43" wind drift at the 1000 yd at match at Williamsport in the early 70,s and thats with bench rifle from a bench. over that range you can have two or more wind shifts with different speeds that you must compensate for to hit your target .i wish the tv long range hunting shows would show the misses they have, instead of only the hits and remember most of those shows are trying to sell you some thing and are being used by long range experts and not by joe the common hunter. after a expert shot and the best equipment comes a expert spotter to call your shots, that is just as important in long range shooting. I know my shooting abilities and equipment and they are 300 yards or under and I prefer under at a standing broadside animal. [/QUOTE]
