I find wind extremely frustrating, as they completely screw up my shots. Where I live, there's a 10 mph breeze blowing almost every day, and even though I'm shooting .28g bbs @ 350 fps, they are still curving up to 1.5 feet off target at 200 feet. The thing I HATE most about the wind effect if that the wind is extremely inconsistent. If the wind were to blow a constant 10 mph, I would be fine, but nope... What do you guys think are acceptable sniping conditions? 5 mph wind? 10 mph wind? And for those of you with hot shooting rifles w those .4g bbs, does wind affect you significantly less? Also, is 400 fps w/.2's (stock BAR10 spring, hopup) enough to pump out .36g bbs to 200+ feet?
EDIT: Turned out to be that my hopup was causing the bbs to curve. The problem is fixed, although wind still has a pretty big effect!
