And it also depends on what kind of shot you're shooting. In a high wind, steel shot is blown around much more than something heavier. I've seen that fully illustrated, it's bizarre but true.

When I shoot steel, I shoot heavy loads of #2 and BB in ten gauge guns. I'm not too concerned with wind drift up to 50 yards, or up to more if the wind isn't blowing too much.
