What it is saying is if you have a huge 20 mph wind at the muzzle, your shot is going to be farther off downrange than if you had the big gust of wind 2 yards before the target. In the first 100 yards the bullet is fast, the next 100 the bullet is slowing down giving the wind more time to effect shot placement so you need to calculate the effect of all wind speed and wind angles from you to the target.
Question: The mirage and shimmer cause the light to be refracted about, and if we could follow a single beam, it would look kind of like a snake weaving along. So, if I am using a laser rangefinder, the laser gets wiggly-wiggly going to the target, and then back again. As such, the light has to travel farther. Therefore there must be some kind of ranging error in such conditions. I am wondering the magnitude of error when measuring over 1000 yards to a target (2000 yards of mirage influence).... A yard? 5 yards? 20 yards? Or, no measurable difference?
the wind changes the bullets path most when its farther down range actually, because thats when the bullets speed is lower
I used to love to play with this program when it was free on the internet years ago, lol.
This is good. Nice info on this. THanks for posting. For a guy that's trying to brush up on old skills, this helped out immensely. Thank you!

best 👍
Fantastic informative video thanks
nice

No measurable difference. The angle of light deflection is really small so the cosine of the small angle is almost the same as the hypotenuse.
