[QUOTE="Plinkit, post: 1677895, member: 110730"] I have to sit down with the ballistic calculator set to 100 yard increments and just play with the wind I usually find in mils that out to 600 ish I can say something like .1 mil per 100 yards per 4mph of of wind. But... Once I cross to about 700 yards then the slowing of the bullet kicks in and I may need to start adding an extra .1 per hundred in addition. So at 4mph 100 yards .1mil 200 yards .2 mil 300 yards .3 mil 400 yards .4 mil 500 yards .5 mil 600 yards .6 mil 700 yards .8 mil 800 yards 1.0 mil You will also find that the first number of a g1 ballistic coefficient will be a good number to start with [/QUOTE]
