There is another active thread about which wind is best to test in. I decided not to hyjack that thread. Several people on that thread are saying basicly that the best calm day load for your gun may not be the best load for windy conditions....that you need to load test in the conditions that you will compete. I have been hearing that for years, and not just from JOE SHOOTER, but from some of the best of the best.
Can someone please explain this theory for me. I don't want to hear a "just because" answer. I want facts, data, or SOMETHING to convince me that this is true. If it is true, then there must be some mathamatical formula to show why.
Now....PRACTICE in the conditions you will compete make perfect sense. Also, I can see that a FASTER load will buck the wind better, but I am sure that this is not what they are talking about.
Thanks,
Tod
