Improve wind/mirage skills from 5mph confidence to 3mph confidence and that 700 number goes up by 24% and if you can get that wind down to 1 mph confidence a whopping 52%.

Anyone who wants to see some real improvement in their groups go shoot out a few barrels practicing hold, trigger technique and learning wind calling
That was exactly my point. A high BC bullet helps a lot, as there is smaller adjustment needed and your margin for error will increase. At the end of the day though, learning how to call the wind and nearly exactly estimate range are the two real skills needed in long range shooting. Everything else required for a hit can be done by trained monkeys.
