    I bought an $18 one from dx,com, its good enough IMHO to get me onto the target....ie tells me the wind is varying 8~12kmh (say) so pick a mean of 10, I know the range so I have a band of MOA to choose from I look downrange and try to judge if it looks stronger or weaker or a different angle and pick a sighting shot MOA from that and off I go....For $18 its helped a lot IMHO...I really wonder that a $100 unit would have helped any more...

    The other thing I do is a wander about looking around me and take a reading to try and get my eyes to better judge wind....not getting to far at the moment though.

    Jkey should be nervious, I often check out the flag on top of the beehive.....I mean tell an assasin what the wind is doing outside his window why dont you....doh.
