Here in western WA we get to see a lot of rain. I still shoot, rain or not. My regular sight settings still work out to 600 yds. If it rains too hard, I am more concerned with water bridging the peep sight than the bullets hitting water drops. I have noticed that when I go to eastern WA (much drier) that my POI is slightly higher.
