This is Part 2 of a 3-part series on ranging long-distance shots in the wind with an air rifle. In this tutorial, I show how to estimate target distance, as well as wind speed, wind direction, pellet speed and incline angle. All of this information will be applied in part 3 to show how to make complicated, long-range shots.
This hunting footage was captured February 15, 2011 in rural Wisconsin. It shows me hunting pigeons with my .22 PCP air rifle in very high wind (20-30mph or 9-13m/s). The gun used is an Edgun Matador .22 PCP air rifle, sighted in at 55 yards (50 meters). The scope is a Hawke Sidewinder 30 IR Tactical 6.5-20x (shooting @ 10x in this video). The pellets were JSB 18.1g, shooing @ 900fps (274m/s).
