Is there a mod that chances the intervals to 10 yards, or even 1 yard? Something more useful for developing target solutions?

Okay, let's do math. Question: why would the ruler measure distances accurate only to 50 yards?
How do you measure speed? The easiest way is that the number of hundred yards a target travels in 3 minutes is its speed in knots. 1000 yards is 10 knots. When you measure accurate only to 50 yards, you are making a difference of ½ knot. If you are accurate to half a knot from 1000 yards away you get a boom every time.
Why would more accuracy help? Is one boom that much better than the other? You'll not find someone to help make a more accurate ruler because it is already accurate enough. The modders have done the math.
