[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 913893, member: 229"] OK - so I'm getting close to those numbers by taking come-up in MOA and multiplying by 1.047 to get inches and then multiplying by 1/100 of whatever the yardage is at the various places on the chart to get my poi in inches. But I'm totally unable to do the same thing with wind drift (with any degree of accuracy) so I thought I was converting wrong. I must be doing something else wrong. Once I've figured out (what I think is) the wind-speed, I then look at the drift on the range card (which is only in inches per 1mph in a couple of the simulators I'm using) and multiply that number by what I think is the wind-speed in MPH. I then take that number and divide by 1.047 and then by 1/100 of the yardage to get my adjustment in MOA and my POI is always waaaaaay off (yet my guess at the wind-speed is always fairly close).
