"He means the 223 bullet is pushed around a lot more by the wind than a heavier 308"

I understand. But for a target gun, having the bullet hit the target without you thinking is not going to make you a better target shooter. If you just want to hit it, buy a Tracking Point scope.

Should you not have to ... take a wind measurement, calculate the dope, make your adjustment, watch indicators like grass thru the scope until the wind condition reappears, then release the round.

At 1000 yards a 1-2 mile per hour wind change can move you off target.... but you want that...... I think.
