No problem throwing these things in a sack over my shoulder, enroute to the Michigan forests every day.

It is 5/8 " thick 4 inches long and 1.5 inches wide, you could probably get 2 in your shirt pocket.

We were taught that winds exceeding 10 mph is a huge gamble but still possible. We were also taught a closer shot is more desirable but were required to qualify at much longer ranges. For those that are interested checkout US Army FM 23-10 and go to page 3-29 for wind velocity and formula for converting wind velocity to MOA. Mirage is more effective for determine wind velocity IMO.
