[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 9545, member: 3"] Brian I've been toying with a graph to show you how wind works based on start, stop and overall trajectory distance effected but my brain broke! Think on this for a bit. (I shoot a 308 Win with 175 Sierra at 2660 fps) If you're shooting 1000 yards and there is a 10 mph full value wind for the first 100 yards and no wind for the remaining distance the amount of correction you'll need is about 1 MOA, same as if you're only shooting 100 yards in a 10 mph full value wind. If you think you have a grasp on that and the reason answer back this question; the amount of correction you'd need if the 10 mph wind started at the 500 yard mark and stopped at the 600 yard mark with no wind anywhere else on the range with the target still at 1000 yards.
