The displayed HCD yardage number is corrected for shot angle
and needs no extra user input; shooters simply use the appropriate
level ground bullet drop and
wind adjustment for the
range displayed and shoot.
Archers use the appropriate
level ground sight pin for the
range displayed and shoot.
HCD Mode
The Ranger 1000 provides two range modes: HCD (Horizontal
Component Distance) and LOS (Line of Sight). Both modes
offer a Scan feature.
Using the HCD Mode
Use the HCD range mode in the following situations:
• Rifle shooting on level ground at any range.
• Rifle shooting out to ranges of 800 yards with mild slopes
(less than 15 degrees).
• Rifle shooting out to ranges of 400 yards with moderate
slopes (15 to 30 degrees).
• For all archery shooting.

conditions. The yardage number displayed is the critical
horizontal component distance.
