I shoot 3 different .243s all are about the same and shoot about the same barrels last longer that way. Rio7

Nice wind correction 😎 Rio, best guess...You think your shots hit higher with wind from your back because the wind is reflecting off the ground then pushing up with a draft? Anyone know if this is true...I’ve found the same, except my range is across a canyon and I always assumed it’s updraft from the wind...Your range is flat and closer to the ground...Just curious if anyone know other than a meteorologist.

Right, Mr. Chisum? John Chisum: Wrong, Mr. Pepper. Because no matter where people go, sooner or later there's the law. And sooner or later they find God's already been there.
