yip, it's definitely slower. kinda like playing chess with the wind... you need to be at the top of your game for 5 times 10 shot string spread thru the day, for nationals it is a whole week where the top guys make very few mistakes.
we do have plenty variation on the different ranges.
brancepeth in wairarapa has a hill and gully on the right, and very different wind effect from 600 back.
cheltenham has a shelter belt of trees on the left from 600 to 500.
whatawhata in hamilton you shoot over a gully. at 1000yds the best wind indicator according to the locals is the leaves right at the top of a big mother of a tree
seddon the wind is just MAD...
what NRA style does miss out on is up and down angle shooting and shooting from uncomfortable/strange positions.
