Pretty certain that a few of you have seen this problem.
Here's a little wind quiz. There are 2 shooters firing identical bullets at the same velocity to a distance of 1000 yds. In both instances, there are no obstructions for each, other than a 100 ft tall wall.
In the one instance, shooter A has a wall right next to him that starts at the firing line and goes 500yds downrange. Once that bullet begins slowing down, it is no longer afforded the protection of the wall and it gets a full value wind.
In the other instance, shooter B has a 500yd long wall that starts 500yds downrange, then extends to the target. When the bullet starts out, it immediately gets hit by that full value wind, but coasts as it reaches that wall.
Which bullet drifts more...and why?
