[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 1318327, member: 96226"] outside of guys who shoot more or less for a living and dedicate huge resources to dealing with this very problem there's no reason to expect that you'd be able to shoot to the gun (*what you call shooting to the mechanical accuracy capabilities of the rifle) beyond short to intermediate distances. Wind calls will be the first thing to blow your groups as distance grows and outside of 300m I doubt most recreational target shooters are capable of nailing their wind call. Find a load with single digit velocity SD's and work your wind calls HARD. Learn how terrain and trajectory affect effective wind speeds. You'll really get the best bang for your buck that way. At least IMHO. [/QUOTE]
