The problem with the windage fronts, you have to remember to move it opposite of the way you want the bullet to go, and then if the wind quits in the middle of the string you're stuck with x amount of minutes that you have to break position and look at the muzzle of the gun to get back to zero.

All my rifles have Baldwin Soule sights. This particular rifle has a junk front sight that needs replaced anyway. Remembering that the front sight is moved opposite of what the rear sight does is easy, at the beginning of a very windy match, I'd just put in a few minutes to help. Getting a different rear Soule that the windage rotates the opposite of the Baldwin would, could, and can be devastating to my concentration on the line in a relay. I've watched several guys spin the windage the wrong way.

Anyway, that's my idea of how it would work. I wish Baldwin would make one.
