WHEN I SHOOT BASED ON THE TRUE BALLISTIC RANGE READOUT PROVIDED
BY THE RANGEFINDER, THE PROJECTILE IS NOT HITTING THE TARGET.
The first step in correctly using TBR is Practice, Practice, Practice. Anytime
you handle a firearm or bow, you are ultimately responsible for where your
projectile ends up.
Be certain that if you’re shooting a bow that “BOW” is turned on.
Be certain that if you’re shooting a rifle that “BOW” is turned off.
Be certain you selected the correct ballistic groups (see pages 20-27).
It is imperative that a rifle be sighted-in at the recommended range.
For rifles, ballistic performance of firearms and ammunition may vary from
manufacturers published information.
For bows and rifles: If possible, obtain actual chronograph measurements of
projectile speed to make TBR work as accurately as possible.
RANGEFINDER DOES NOT PROVIDE RANGE OR RANGE IS OBVIOUSLY INCORRECT.
Make sure you don’t have a mode turned on that prevents the rangefinder
from ranging your target. For example, if Long Range Mode is on and
“>150” appears at the top of the display, you will not be able to range
something at 50 yards.
