[QUOTE="Barbourcreek, post: 2649854, member: 124432"] Unfortunately no, most Military FM and TM teach incorrect wind, they give you solutions that are more than 2 MPH correction, that is a miss or wound on an animal at longer ranges! sad to say! most civilian books teach the same regurgitated stuff as above , I have yet to find a book on wind that is correct, would love to be proved wrong but so far I am not I use 3 tools for wind depends on situation 1. Mirage (the correct way) I developed in 1992 2. Rain angle I developed in 1992 3. Wind meter (last tool I will ever use), I prefer not to use a windmeter [I]when shooting in dirty wind[/I] IE: hills and Valleys, wind at you is skewed at that point. I only use a wind meter when no rain is available and mirage is rendered useless beyond 9 + MPH [/QUOTE]
