An interesting look at a bullets flight path on a windy day.

Skip to :58 to see the actual shooting.


From the uploader -

"This is 20 tracer rounds of 556 from an AR15 on a windy, rainy day. The range was 450 yards. I wanted to record how much the wind would blow a bullet off target. The camera was zoomed to 12 power, so it is farther than it looks. The rifle scope was only 3.5 power. I was basically aiming for the tree right to the left of the target. And holding on about the 400m hash mark in the scope. I wasn't trying my hardest to hit the target, just demonstrate the wind drift. I tried these tracers in a different AR that is known to be very accurate, and these bullets shoot very wild, so I was lucky to hit the target as much as I did. I always wish I had brought more ammo!"

I need to look at this on my home computer instead of the phone. Said he wasn't shooting for accuracy, but it looked pretty good to me.
