How The Rx-1000I Works - Leupold RX-1000i Operation Manual

than a hunting bullet . TBR is a marriage of laser ranging, an inclinometer, and an
advanced computerized ballistics program . The result is distance measurements
accurate to less than a yard, no matter the angle at which the laser is fired . Bullets
and arrows travel in a ballistic arc, yet conventional rangefinders only provide
a linear distance to your target . TBR delivers the ballistic equivalent range to
the target, accounting for the effects of inclines or declines on the path of your
bullet or arrow . Other features that are provided for firearms are outputs that
display either MOA adjustments, or inches / centimeters / mils of holdover at that
specific distance . TBR eliminates any potentially significant error, and provides
a precise range for your aiming calculations . TBR is matched to each of seven
firearm ballistics groups or archery ballistics, allowing use with most popular
firearms and bows .
HOW THE RX -1000i WORKS
The RX -1000i is a top-quality 6x22mm monocular that incorporates the
additional benefit of a state-of-the-art laser rangefinder capable of measuring
the distance of a deer-sized animal from 5 yards to 600 yards, an inanimate
object from 5 yards to 700 yards, and a reflective target from 5 yards to 1,000
yards . It emits a series of invisible, infrared energy pulses that are reflected
off the selected target back to the optical unit . State-of-the-art circuitry and
precision computing circuits are used to calculate the distance by measuring the
time it takes for each pulse to travel from the RX-1000i to the object and back .
