[QUOTE="Guest, post: 24908"] Cybra WOE DOGGIE on the inclination angle, with out Len's trick Lieca, we can get pretty close, with just careful observation. One degree is about 5 feet at 100 yards, about 56 ft. at 1,060 yards; look at the treeline on the horizon, and down to where the target is, I would guess no more than 400 feet below the horizon level with our position. 400 feet of elevation change divided by 56 feet, gives us a tick more than 7 degrees of inclination. Hilly country can be awful tricky when it comes to estimating inclination angle. Most guys really overestimate, if they do not have a good tool. Just remember 1 degree gives you about 52 ft. at 1,000 yds. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] [ 01-13-2003: Message edited by: S1 ] [/QUOTE]
