At the first zoom level (1.5x) it is yes. For some reason however at second zoom it is coming out all wonkey. I am thinking I need to adjust the zoom settings to get it working correctly at larger zooms.

The image is on the scope so it zooms with the scope so marks stay the same no matter the zoom level. (wonder If I mount the Scale so it is not actually a part of the scope if it would work better. Have to poke around the menu editor to see how to add the scale image independantly) I can't seem to find the standard Green scale image in the menu editor for some reason so I haven't been able to get rid of it at the lower zoom levels.

For now I can figure as I mentioned above in default zoom. I figured if I used a multiple zoom x3 or x4 all I would have to do is either divide or multiply the number I got x3 or x4 to get the correct info i.e. at max zoom target takes up 2 marks and is 30m tall. So that would be 3000/2 is 1500.

Now if I were at minimum Zoom the 1500 would be correct however if I am using the larger zoom this is not correct. I figured if I multiplied by 3 or 4 (depending on my zoom value ((4.5x = 3)) or ((6x = 4)) then I would get a correct range but right now it is not coming up correctly.
Just going to take a little thinking how to set it up to always be correct at larger ranges.
Right now < 3000 using standard zoom (1.5x) it is accurate on everything I have tested it on.
