you dont use the tables, you use the periscope overlay by hitting E when in periscope view. next you cycle the mast height with the arrow keys in up and down for 10s and left and right for single digits to get the right mast height reading.

1000m/10 hectometers sounds very close. On Wolfpack we always range the targets on the periscopes using the Radian lines. Together with the highest Mast height of the identified ship.

Picture from Fox (member of Wolfpack discord) Ranging the target with the Radian lines.


And then the Vertical Distance table, the Height in meters stands for the Mast height.



If that Mast for example is 36m high. And you zoom in with the perisope and you got 32 Radians. On the table it gives you around 40-42 hectometers. So the ship in the picture is more or less 4000-4200m away.
