Default Long range shooting simulation

Kind of a neat simulation. I scored a 75 on my first try. I can tell you the windage is backwards (at least to me) the arrow is pointing the direction the wind is coming from.

To start click on one of the stage buttons on the bottom left.

Use the mil-dots in the scope along with the equations on the left.

Or you can shoot once, watch the impact, then line up where the impact was according to the mil-dots in the scope on the target. You'll always be down at least one shot that way.

Same here. Around 90. Range estimation got way easier. Having trouble with wind, though.
