I'm trying to understand mirage and ways to mitigate it better. Specifically in regards to getting 'above' it.
I tried searching but no luck. Please point me to the correct thread if there is one that addresses this specific issue.
My question is this:
How much does getting 6 ft or 12 ft above the ground on a shooting platform help mirage?
I am looking at building a platform for a 350 yd range and possibly later on a tower for a 900 yd range.
Does taking the shot from 6-12 feet over what is then flat ground for say 350 or 900 yd shots greatly decrease the mirage you have to deal with, or is the effect negligible?
Thanks,
Parker
