[QUOTE="flopduster, post: 31335, member: 1615"] First off I understand that I am a novice at this. I have been playing the Long range shooting demo on [url="http://www.shooterready.com"]www.shooterready.com[/url] tyring to decide if I want to buy it. I can range the targets well enough to get the come-ups for a hit, but can not get the windage. I can call the wind correctly, but can not get the wind deflection converted to MOA. This is suppose to be a shooting simulator not a game. Example: on the first target I range it at 444(it is 420) pull down the chart and adjust up 8.75MOA, The wind is 15mph from 9oclock, the chart says 1.6 inches per 1 mph wind so 1.6 times 15 is 24 inches right?(I know I have to be making a mistake somewhere, I just don't know where) By my calculations 24 inches at 440 yds is 1.55moa, I dial it in and miss. I increase the windage until I get a hit and the correct amount is 4.75moa. Where am I going wrong??? How does 1.6inches per mph full value wind deflection in a 15mph full value wind equal 4.75moa???
