Wind is a variable that doesn't come into play to much for any ethical hunter, whether killing a deer at 100 yards or 1000 yards.
Well, I simply couldn't disagree more. I don't hunt in underground tunnels, there's always
some amount of wind. Just how much is nearly always the single biggest determining factor of the range at which I'd feel comfortable taking a shot.
For a given set of conditions, a bullet that drifts twice as much means I shorten that range considerably. It limits me. Or at any given range, the odds of a miss or a bad hit due to slightly incorrect wind call are increased.
The original question was for out to 1000 yds. That does not mean a spotter shot for everybody. Even with spotter shots, the wind can change between them. The lower BC bullet you're using, the farther off your shot will be as a result.
Again, I don't doubt yours or Gerard's bullets performing very well over a wide range of use. That doesn't make them the
best choice for
this application.
