[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 607445, member: 30902"] You just described probably 95% of the shots I take HA! The MP8, Mil Dot, and TMR reticles really do help. Remember too that your wind values change with the angle to the wind as well. If your target is 90 degrees to the wind, then you have full value. Less than 90 or more than 90 your windvalue falls. For exampe if he's quartering into the wind, you'd cut your wind value in half. If he's quartering away from you and the wind you cut it by 3/4 because you actually have a "push" of the bullet by the wind which reduces your lead, as well as cutting your lead due to the fact the left/right movement is cut by half. I've actually had to lead some from behind when they were trotting away directly down wind. It just takes a lot of practice in the wind for quick shots. [/QUOTE]
