I attended my first match in June. Learned a lot, saw a lot. I saw a lot of folks with wind probes and think it's another item I'd like to add to my "stuff". I have looked into it a bit and have found two that I would like more information on. Gene Beggs and Orlando Wind Meter. Any thoughts , comments, experience, etc would be much appreciated. I'm shooting a 6mm PPC LV at 100/200 yrds. Thanks.
 
i believe gene is the original wind probes...and an all round good guy in benchrest.
no info on the others

where do you shoot ??

Mike I shoot at Cherry Creek Gun Club(the indoor range) and at Ben Lomond Gun Club. The match I spoke of was at Northern Colorado Benchrest in Eaton, CO. I'm on the list at Aurora. Estimate 3 to 5 years to be able to join.

I bought a wind probe a while back that showed the wind in reverse. Most dam confusing thing there ever was. in other words the wind catch was at 12ockclock but the wind grid and marker was at 6 o'clock. A left to right wind would show a 6 o'clock reading on the grid. I didnt like it. Beggs sure does make a dandy but be ready, they AINT cheap. Lee
 
Tatco,

I have been using a probe that I purchased from Gene Beggs for about four years now. It turns out to be one of the best investments that I have made, it's very well made, and well worth the price.
