Distances at PRGC Main Rifle Range
« on: August 03, 2011, 08:44:07 AM »
What are the distances at the main rifle range at PRGC (to the target stand, not the berm)? They are not 50, 100, 150, 200, 300, 400, 500 etc... , yards. In mil dotting them out, they are a mite longer. I'll confess to being horrible at mil dot range estimation.

I've read they are in Metric, which would be 50, 100, 150, 200, 300, 400, 500 ... meters, or 55, 110, 165, 220, 330, 440, 550 yards which would mostly jive with my mil dot estimation however my estimates for 330 yard and 440 yards were about 10 to 15% higher than that.

If anybody knows the actual ranges, please help so I can calibrate myself and the holes I put in the targets to a known range. Thanks.

You are correct... Meters is what the range was orginally built on.
