The range as calculated from the scope is usually within 10% of the real range, although that difference has more to do with my ability to guesstimate the actual mast height against the horizontal bars.

the formulas which I use are the following:

observation scope:

1.5x - MastHeight x 100 / horizontal bars = Range

6x - MastHeight x 400 / horizontal bars = Range

Attack scope:

1.5x - MastHeight x 50 / horizontal bars = Range

6x - MastHeight x 200 / horizontal bars = Range

excellent work.
Are you finding that the mast heights match those from the Cfg file the same ones as I placed onto the Recognition manual.
If so then it shows that the stadimeter is where the problem is not the stats reguarding use of the stadimeter.
