At 114+ MPH, I think I'd be calling for an artillery strike before attempting to dope that kind of wind!!!

Ask Jacob,
I think he shot in an 80+MPH once or twice thanks to Hurricane Season... he can give you an idear.

I thought we live in Montana, not Wyoming...
Definitely wasn't a good day to shoot prairie dogs

I once piloted a Cessna 172 through banning pass in CA. My head wind was unknown, though I had the bird almost full throttle (125 knots?) and my GPS indicated ground speed was 4 knots. Hmmm.
Took a long time to get through that pass.

Re: Need a wind call!
At full value for a 1K target,(in bama) I'd shoot 90 IPHY wind for my 190's leaving the 300wm muzzle. Also believe I'd have to go from 24.5 IPHY of up, to 28.5 at the same time.
I'd like to try that shot just once.
Where's Bryan Litz's answer, when you need him?

I was supposed to go over and shoot with a friend near Big Timber on Saturday. I bagged out when I read the predictions for 70mph+ gusts. CRAP 114 ?? I'd have to be shooting way passed my capabilities to shoot minute of mountain.

Re: Need a wind call!
MM:
Thats a lot of wind. We hit the 80's quite often but usually not over 100 more than once a year. I saw 123 on my 80 foot tower in early January but I don't trust the cheap anemometer's I replace all the time. You can really tell the difference in the way the house shakes when it gets to 100.
Assume everyone went to the super bowl to wait on your free housing right? Hope it didn't blow away your lawn ornaments.

Re: Need a wind call!
Bob, we're sort of in a mountain valley it wasn't that bad here. We probably had steady 40s, gusting into the 70s for several hours though.
It get's a lot worse further north, where the Rocky Mountain front spills right out on the flatter country, that's kinda where Choteau is.
