Shooting .22 at 50 and 100 yards/meters or aririfles at 15 and 25 meters will kick your butt if youdo not read the winds. While it will not replace longragne it will augment.

for a simple formula trythis one.

R1 x H1 divided by R2 = H2

R1 = Reduced range

R2 = Simnularted range

H1 = Actaul height of taget

H2 = Reduced height

So, R1 = 35 meters, R2 = 500 meters, H1 = 24 inchs

Then 35 x 24/500 = 1.68 inches is the height of a target at 35 meters to simulate a 24 inch target at 500 meters.

Try it at 50 meters with a 22 and then again at 100 meters with a 22 and see waht the wind does to you.
