For stationary targets, AOB isn't relevant. Only range and bearing, but I guess that's not your point.

The AOB should always be on the right side. If it isn't then you have a badly wrong range estimate, or else you have the scope on the wrong magnification, or finally you have the wrong magnification for the tool. For example, if you are using the GWX version, this is set for a high power magnification of 10x.

Some mods will change the GWX magnfiication back to x6. Sergbuto's free camera mod, forexample. If this is so, then the settings are no longer correct. Do you have other mods which affect the magnification of the scopes?

As to your final point, again you need to know what you scope magnfication settings are.

If you have stock then it is x1.5/x6 if GWX it is x1.5/x10 on the attack scope.

The tool is always calibrated for the scope on high power. If you wish to use it on low power, you must multiply the measured length of the target to scale it to high power. So for stock, youmust multiply the measured length by 4, if for GWX by 6.6

This multiplication can be done with the AOB finder, as described in the manual. It takes just a second.
