Maybe, I was just at the range today trying out my newest gun but you can never shoot enough. Probably early afternoon, around 1:00?

And when its wet, once you commit, you are in! There is a long, steep drop in to get to the fun stuff. Better have a winch.

I got a few videos from a local gun shoot. It was fun having 20+ guys with about 50 guns there.

I'll let Tyler take this one........
I think the MWC should draw up a "Don't ask, Don't tell" policy.

Wind doesn't have anything to do with the size of your group, only the placement of your group on the target.
Unless you're playing with your sights trying to put the rounds centermass.
2" groups isn't a bad day for most people.

What if it's not a constant wind? Gusts?
in my experience, unless you pull the trigger exactly the same time a gust happens and it was a significant velocity change, a windy day is pretty consistent.
You might see winds like 10-15 mph, but at 100 yards, the bullet isn't in the air long enough to notice a small wind change like that.
Now at 500 yards, wind plays a serious role. But even then, I'm usually dialed in by the second or third shot. We shoot 10 rounds at the 500 on an 18" wide target.
Unless brian is shooting really slow groups, which wouldn't make a lot of sense if he's shooting a semiauto AR, i don't think wind is going to affect his groups as much as his shooting technique.
