[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2711126, member: 15054"] It does but the first couple feet make the biggest difference. YES YES it sounds like bs. and Frank my buddy thought so also so he got out and built the A frame over the concrete pad and shot at a target 100 yards away with strong crosswinds and stated without the A frame dog house over the first 2 feet the bullets were blown farther off course.. like 2" then put up the wind block and the groups pulled right into the bullseye. I to am a skeptic and have not seen the article yet .. but I do like testing things.. I think is must have something to do with the initial pressure wave being disrupted easier as it is forming and kicking the bullet into a Yaw possibly or something along those lines. I try to science it out in my head. OK my friend told me the bullet when it leaves the barrel in a cross wind it blows it off course for that instant and it continues that off course until it hits the target, even if the down range wind is zero. It is in the Feb. 2015 Outdoor life.. which I went to find one and all that is on the news stands are March . [/QUOTE]
