Abstract

A range-finding and ballistics effect compensating scope 804 with a ballistic effect compensating reticle aim point field 650 and ammunition adaptive aim compensation method for rifle sights or projectile weapon aiming systems includes (a) a primary aiming point 658 adapted to be sighted-in at a first selected range and (b) the locus of the RF beam for sensing range 29 to a selected target 28. The when firing, the reticle's aim point field also includes a sloped array of wind dots (e.g., 660) illustrating aim points for a range of crosswind conditions. The method for compensating for a projectile's ballistic behavior permits the shooter to sense or measure the LOS range to target 29 and sense or input the slope angle 27 and local or nominal air density ballistic characteristics (e.g., air density), and then display corrected hold points.
