Embodiment Construction

[0012]The following description relates to instruments for achieving improved accuracy in targeting objects from a distance. In particular, the present invention provides instruments designed to measure the slope of a reference point to an object at a distance. In addition, the present invention provides instruments designed to measure the cant level of a reference point to an object at a distance. FIGS. 1-3 illustrate various preferred embodiments of the instruments of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to these particular embodiments.

[0013]The angle slope level indicator (ASLI) instruments provided in the present invention are designed, for example, for a sophisticated rifleman who engages targets at high or low angles. The ASLI instruments of the present invention provide fast, precise, easy to read, vertical angle information and, in some embodiments, corresponding cosine values. In addition, the ASLI instruments of the present invention provide cant lev...

Abstract

The present invention relates to instruments for achieving improved accuracy in targeting objects from a distance. In particular, the present invention provides instruments designed to measure the slope of a reference point to an object at a distance. In addition, the present invention provides instruments designed to measure the cant level of a reference point to an object at a distance.

Description

[0001]The present invention claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60 / 763,233, filed Jan. 30, 2006, the entire disclosure of which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to instruments for achieving improved accuracy in targeting objects from a distance. In particular, the present invention provides instruments designed to measure the slope of a reference point to an object at a distance. In addition, the present invention provides instruments designed to measure the cant level of a reference point to an object at a distance.BACKGROUND[0003]Accurately targeting an object with a weapon (e.g., rifle) requires keen perception and skill. For long-range targets, the use of a scope with the weapon greatly enhances a user's precision. However, the use of scopes does not correct for all limitations. For example, a user must account for cant level errors, and a user must account for slope and cosi...
