I was gonna ask the same question. The wind is a hard thing to deal with out here. Fellow shot a speed goat the other day and the wind drifted the bullet almost a foot and a half. Oh he hit the lope and the 2nd shot did it in. The range was about 335 yds according to my Leica 1200 and the wind was (relativley) calm...by Wyoming standards. LOL Makes it pretty hard to guestimate at any times. On one really calm day I actually killed a PD at a bit more than 650 yds with my Barrett. Pure luck though..It just wasn't that PDs day. I did miss a shot on an elk at about 500 because of the different wind on the other side of the canyon... it was calm where I was shooting from.
