Calling wind is the hardest part of long-range shooting. Gun Number trains the mental math precision shooters do under the pressure to develop a wind call before conditions change. Practice with realistic scenarios: • Four difficulty tiers — from stated wind at full value (Novice) to multi-cue overlap with shifting wind across stages (Expert) • Read mirage angle, environmental cues, and flag indicators with cue tables that match how shooters actually call wind • Multi-target stages of 1 to 4 targets — single timer, like a real PRS troop line • Bracket mode shows you a wind-speed range to compute, with a Send-it / Fits / Exceeds plate-fit check • Configurable plate size from 0.5 to 3 MOA, custom MRAD if you want it • Density altitude correction past 800 yards, baked into the math walkthrough • Mirage drift direction matches your wind clock — every cue matches what you'd actually see downrange Built for actual stage practice: • Per-target timer that matches the pressure you'll feel between shots • Self-rating after every reveal builds the data you need to spot weak spots • Session summary breaks performance down by wind cue type — find what's costing you points Educational reference built in: • Worked examples that walk through the formula on real scenarios • Clock-face wind angle diagram with multipliers • Full cue tables for mirage, environmental, and flag indicators • Density altitude correction reference Privacy: • Local-only. No accounts. No analytics. No ads. • Profile and session history live on your device — never transmitted. Try 5 free scenarios.
