Is there a really good way to calculate wind drift - Page 2

I guess that first, write down the bullet drift for various ranges and wind speeds.

Then find articles about wind speed effects on your location in the field: Grasses moving or not. Small tree branches moving or not. Larger branches moving or not.

It doesn't hurt to check local area weather forecasts for probable wind speeds during the day.
