Drop scale Factor (DsF)
This allows you to enter and maintain a table of drop
scale factors (DSF) that utilize observed drop at range
to calibrate the elevation computation. The number
shown to the top right of the screen represents the
suggested range distance at which to apply a drop scale
factor for transonic flight. Additional drop scale factors
can be added to the DSF table by shooting at greater
distances including subsonic flight. Attempting to enter
an additional drop scale factor that is closer in range
distance than existing DSF table entries will invalidate
and erase the existing entries.
• To access the DSF Calibration, use and to scroll to "Cal

including subsonic flight. Attempting to
enter an additional drop scale factor that is
closer in range distance than existing DSF
table entries will invalidate and erase the
