Too often I'll anticipate, say, 6" of drift and it ends up hitting right where I aim.

Wind does too many crazy things for me to be aiming at a non-lethal spot on a medium/big game in my opinion. If I think it's going to drift much more than 12-15", I'm waiting or getting closer.
 
Great advice @curtism1234 If at any time you have to aim outside of the vital area, stop, don't shot and move closer to your pray.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
