I found The Wind Book For Rifle Shooters to be a fantastic primer. It is conversational (kind of feels like you're having a chat with a kind uncle), but doesn't shy away from the math... and it just gets you to think about the wind and its effects properly.

I highly recommend it, even if it doesn't seem to get a lot of airtime here.

  • If you were to go with a kestrel, buy one of the 4500 series - you can get them for reasonable now that the new ones are out. You don't need link or all the bells and whistles - what you need is wind and atmospheric data - wind being the biggest factor. With a kestrel for wind and you ballistics calculator, you are good to go.
  • Buy proper bags. Period. In fact - I have an extra set of JSA Tactical bags that I've shot with and no longer need - they are missing some stitching but besides that they are excellent to use. The Game Changer is pretty neat - I am looking at adding one to my kit.

    I think what is going to get you the best bang for your buck will be the bags - there are ways to estimate wind - buy this book - it will help immensely.


    Let's talk about your reloading setup what kit are you using to reload? (dies, bullets, powder, trimming etc).

Generally good points, and its a really worthwhile discussion, but point 1 is pretty hotly debated. For example, if you read The Wind Book for Rifle Shooters you will find that they completely disagree, and that wind in the first half is more important.

Aside from that, I think you have done a good job here, and I hope it sparks useful debate.

Thanks, the 2 books I had recommended by the instructors of Ontario's provincial rifle association were Litz's that you mention and The Wind Book.

>I've read articles from professional shooters, and almost all of it is either voodoo, or cannot be visually modeled easily (such as mirage)

The impression I have got is that it's an acquired skill that is very hard to describe and teach. Voodoo haha, I like to call it black magic.
