Incorrect. PK tracks the target's progress ... but is only as accurate as the data sent to the TDC. Over time, PK accuracy will usually degrade. It is always a good idea to take a final bearing before shooting.
One word of caution: check your target's heading after sending bearing data to the TDC. Sometimes, sending a final bearing will also send your last adjusted AOB ... not a good thing if AOB has changed.
