Thread: Question about Equivalent Horizontal Range (as Leica call it)

If you keep the range finder in your chest pocket for example the temp reading will be quite incorrect. Apparantly it can take up to 30 minutes for the temp to stablise.

To get a technically better ballistic solution you need to be dealing with raw data. I now just use the actual line of sight range, then press the other button and get the angle. Then enter those and the temp and pressure figures into shooter app on phone. Then you know where you are and that you know that your come up will be more correct.

Of course you can test on the hill to see if you are getting the same come ups using both methods.

Just set shooter to the standard atmospherics, 1013mb not sure what the temp will be, but will be on the internet somewhere.
