[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 2675139, member: 30671"] Wind calls are largely a guess until the bullet arrives. As much as I respect many peoples ability to make educated guesses at range, I'm not convinced anyone can tell me with any certainty what the ACTUAL wind velocity is at the top of the bullet arc in the middle of a cross canyon shot. Meaning absent accurate inputs it's very difficult for us end users to state with any certainty if one bullet fired at a different time encountered the same conditions. Thus we have these discussions, based on legitimate experiences with different outcomes. We write down our misses, and share our successes. The variables rifle to rifle in "real world" BC solutions with the SAME bullet can have one pulling their hair, much less comparing side by side. If you missed the part about respect for ALL those putting in work, and sharing experiences I meant it. [/QUOTE]
