[QUOTE="Doug Herold, post: 1636160, member: 102658"] Something you may want to consider: Set your zero .25 moa (1 click) to the left of center @ 100 yds. This puts me well into the kill from 100 to 800 yds. (POI will drift back an inch or so to the right at 800). But I don’t have to complicate the thought process with the wind drift call out to that distance. At 1000 yds, my POI is going to be @ 3” to the right so I have to “hold” for that. Most misses are because the shooter doesn’t hold for enuf wind — not because he held too much. More important is the correct wind call. To add the wind drift into the calculation just complicates the process and costs valuable seconds... just IMO. [/QUOTE]
