    Beyond that IMO it's faster and more accurate to..

    1. Take a 'line of sight' range and an angle (if your range finder displays angles)
    2. Refer to your drop chart that has columns for 10° 15° 20° bullet drops (customise this to the angles you typically encounter)

    IF you use a BCD or CDS turret, you won't need to refer to a drop chart but you will need to have an idea of how many clicks you need to subtract based on ranges and angles.
    How can it be faster to input 1 distance (TBR) than a distance and angle? Makes no sense, or are you implying after 400m TBR rangefinders are inaccurate?
