[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 303278, member: 8873"] You need to TRY to take into account how any/all winds can affect your bullet. SS7MM is correct in saying the earlier in a bullets flight the wind deflects it from its original path the greater the deflection will be at the intended target. Milanuk is correct in saying that the wind velocity is usually higher at the bullets maximum ordanance (highest point in trajectory) which is approximately 2/3 the distance to the target (according to ballisticians that work for the military).
