Default Being able to manually input range?

Is there a mod that allows you to manually input the range to a target? By that I mean to drag the range dial around to the appropriate range?? As you can only drag it round to about 1500yds, anything further and you have to use the stadimeter to get the longer ranges.

Cheers guys

Sure there is, cuz I can drag mine to 11,000 yards. I assume it's TMO or RSRD, but it may be the TGT/PK mod. I'll try and find out. Had it so long I can't remember which does it.

I think easy AoB does the job.

If someone can explain what to line up when manually inputing range I would enjoy reading it.

On the real thing you line up the range with the object height. So if you drag "90" around until it lines up with "3000" then that is a 90' high object at 3000yds. I love the EasyAOB mod due to the fact you can drag any range you like. It does much more than that but that alone is worth the trouble installing it.

I think there are 2 versions of the easy AOB mod. One just does the AOB the other also covers spped and range.
