30338,

The last...3 times I've been out, hardly more then a breeze going through (112 and 121) One day it WAS blasting in the 35-40mph range, I decided to save my gas money that day and went the following day after work instead.

The argument for a the heavier, wind capable combos for traveling hunters is one I support. Same reason I have no problem suggesting heavier cartridges (if they can be shot well) and premium bullets for out of state hunters coming out here after elk. Yea expensive bullets cost a few bucks more, but nothing compared to tags, gas, time from work, food, etc.
