Thanks for that info, CaptainAsh. I'm going to give that a try this weekend. I have two questions, though, just to make sure I don't mess up the procedure:

1) Will you get the same results if the target is 2000 meters away versus 800 meters away? Basically, since the ship is smaller at 2000 meters wouldn't it travel through the crosshairs faster or is this where I'm just not understanding the physics of the procedure.

2) Does it matter if you have the periscope on zoom instead of normal magnification? This question is similar to question 1 since zoom creates a larger ship image.

Thanks,
Ron
