    In My ballistic app I always have a 2mile 90 degree wind set in. It just gives me an idea in a light wind what my bullet my do in the slightest puff at my given range. If I think there may be a tiny wind mid gully I will hold half the windage. Means at worst I will still only be half wrong but still a lethal shot I would only use this in a situation like yours where wind is virtually nill. Anything more and I dial for wind
    Practicing in wind also helps
