[QUOTE="Jeff In TX, post: 157186, member: 1522"] [ QUOTE ] Just be aware that the "cosine rule" is "good enough" in general terms, if the range is no more than 300 yards ( give or take ) and if we are talking strictly on accurate methods and devices to aid for this "angle compensation" business. ds [/ QUOTE ] 1+ IMHO uing a cosine angle past 400 yards is a waste of time, effort and ammo unless you're going to use the shot as a spotter to make correctionson for the follow up shot. Your % of first round hits will be very low using a cosine angle. [/QUOTE]
