[QUOTE="Small Lady, post: 2951770, member: 126670"] Wind even changes over 2 miles of distance. Get two wind socks, place them 2 miles apart, and they will often show a different wind speed, and direction. As I frequently fly a drone around the ranch, using it to check on things for my boss, the drone is regularly flying through different winds from one end of a field to another, even when less than 2 miles long. So calculating for wind speed and direction where the shooter is, the bullet could be traversing through different wind velocities and direction along the way. 280 degrees @9 MPH can easily be 220 @20 MPH from a little gust many seconds, and 2 miles away. This is a tremendous example of the news making up fake stories. Just as the fake news stories, have led a few to believe that the Ukraine is a victim in this. [/QUOTE]
