Measurement of distances and determination of areas by topographic map, numerical, linear and transverse scale.
To measure distances using a topographic map, use a numerical, linear or transverse scale. Distances between points on a topographic map are usually measured by a compass gauge…
Methods for determining the range to the target, errors in determining the range, determining the range through the reticle, using the thumb and eye methods.
Incorrect determination of the range to the target is the most common cause of misses during long-range shooting. More common than a poor wind score, more common than…
Design options for rafts for crossing rivers and other water barriers, determining the carrying capacity and construction features of a raft of logs.
