For ranging long-range shots, can you mark two points with the Dakota and find the straight-line distance and altitude difference between the two?

You can go to one of the points, mark it as a waypoint and record the elevation. At this time I get rid of all tracks that are not needed because they may confuse things. Then go, not necessarily in a straight line, to the other point, mark it as a waypoint and record the elevation. Zero your trip odometer. Then, click "Where To" and select your first waypoint. Your Trip Computer screen should show distance to destination, and the map screen should have a track that runs right to it. I have not found a way to view the elevation difference directly, because I have never had a need for that. I hope that answers your question. There may be a better procedure, but that has worked for me.

There are lines that you can impose on the picture and you can set those where u want. It does not give distance in feet though.

Both. With the ARC calculation, you get a larger number that shows what you should shoot, and then smaller below that, it displays the actual line of sight distance.

The Direct TV website provides that information. It will ask you your zip code and then give the coordinates by which to aim.

Id say yes. I've used it to spot turkey at 500 plus yards with no problem. Even got a close up on an Eagle flying at cloud level. Hope this helps, and enjoy.

No this this tool is to give you a horizontal (level) line or a vertical (plumb) line, or both. For measuring you want, DEWALT DW030P Laser Distance Measurer, Bosch DLR130K Digital Distance Measurer Kit, Leica Disto D5 Digital Laser Rangefinder or similar device.

The difference is the longitude, both are extremely hard to load. Don't buy this rifle you can get something better for a not so higher price.

Well, it depends how one interprets that question. If you want it to track how far you've traveled in a database (or electronic log file) so you can go back and review your mileage later then NO. However, if you want to tell how many miles you are RIGHT NOW from a stable or trail head (and which direction to travel as the crow flies to get back to your point of origin), then YES. This device only tracks REAL TIME information, and does not store or log anything other than your current location and direction from 1 - 3 way points you've actually traveled to and marked on the device.

Not very far, this is a gun optimized for a 10 meter target. It is accurate because it is fairly low power.

Yes, when you are "ranging" (holding down the range button) you get continuous readings of whatever the laser is bouncing off of, and you can move the range-finder around while you are doing that. The pin distance will come up as you wave back and forth across it. So you don't need to be very steady.

At least a quarter mile, however the greater the distance the larger the dot appears as well as faded. This tactical attachment is really designed for closer aim. Also if you adjust the laser for 20 yrds, it wont be accurate at 100 yrds. You have to continually site the laser for different distances.

So the electronic range finder will work. I like the binocular. Works great.

I don't know the distance, as I have never tried to measure it. What I do know is there are 3 ways to sight your Red Dot once it is mounted. 01) If you have a front sight, Simply adjust the Elevation so that your Dot sits right on the tip of your Front Sight Post, Then make Windage Adjustments once you have Dialed in your Elevation settings. 02) A Laser Bore Sight tool can be used prior to Down Range Sighting in. 03) Winging it - Just simply fire 3 rounds and see where your point of impact is. Then Dial in your Elevation 1st. Then Windage come last.

I have had good results at closer range (100-250 yards) using my iphone5 to capture big game animals. I'm not a photographer, but at that range with a non-sky background I didn't have any issues. With a skyline shot in hotter temperatures you may have some degradation of your images. Best bang for your buck spotting scope.

One does and one does not... There are two different ones. One I believe has the TBA in the model number, and it is a bit more expensive than the one without. The TBA model does compensate for elevation. But, its primarily used for bow hunting in a tree stand. I don't know how accurate it would be in a rifle application at long distances as mine has only been used to bow hunt.

Yes you can mark a focus point on this follow focus device. It's one of the very best I've ever used in every way. By the way, you can also lock in a focus or zoom range and change the tension of the move or focus control. Good unit!

It would only give you the distance from the device itself to the target, or direct line of sight distance. It doesn't calculate "drop" from a higher vantage point.
