Is there such a thing out there in a rifle scope or rangefinder that can measure the width of antlers accurately.


I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.

Ground shrinkage is a real thing! frown

Are you planning another Moose hunt in the 50" wide area?

Rangefinding scope ??? But a scope using moa or mil-dot you can measure by knowing the hash Mark's on a certain power .when using a range finder you can come fairly close.(a lose example is.) Say your moose example deer or elk whatever.is 400yrds we know that 1 moa is a little over 4 inches on a certain power on mine full value is at its top power.
Some examples of its use this way is on U tube I believe gun werk has one, showing the process and formula.

Duplex cross hair scopes are made to be rangefinders, if folks would read the owners manuals. It explains the distance tween the tips of the heavy points at 100 yards and 200 yards
