Discovery shooting wind?

[Cjs180]

Is this normal to expect wind to push the pellets this far with a 10 mph wind right to left? Rifle is a Benjamin Discovery 22. Yardage is 47 yards.  Pay no attention to the shots on the right side that are from the JSB 15.8 pellets.

Yep.

Oh, YES!

Wind can be a funny thing.  You may have a ten mph wind coming from a specific direction but that's not to say the same wind is hitting your target 47 yards away.  It could even be coming from the opposite direction or not blowing at all there.  What about the 47 yards in between?  At least it appears you picked a day with consistent wind across the distance you were shooting.

perfectly normal. Sometimes I will take orange plastic ribbon like surveyors use and tie them to branches and such all the way out to the target at increments of about 10 yards and have found that they help show which way and how hard it is blowing from you to the target. As stated before, sometimes, even in short ranges, several of the ribbons will blow the opposite way from the others. and sometimes each one is going slightly different.

You provide only some of the information needed.

How fast are the pellets travelling?  Slower pellets spend more time in-flight to go a given distance, thus spend more time affected by crosswinds.
