Table 6: Magnified Field 0f View (MFOV) to Animal Length Ratio, R

Hunting Bullet Metrics MFOV Example Problem 2

Notes:

A = Scope Identification where:

2 = 3 - 18 power, identified on Table 3

3 = 6.5 - 20 power, identified on Table 5

B = Shot distance, feet (meters)

C = Magnification multiplier. A magnification multiplier of 3 is associated with a lung shot; a magnification

multiplier of 4 is associated with a heart shot.

D = Required magnification for either a lung or heart shot, calculated by Mag = (Mag X) x (SD/100), rounded

up to the nearest magnification whole number. If the required magnification is less than the scope s

minimum power, the scope s minimum power is shown.

E = Magnified field of view, as calculated here.

F = Magnified field of view to animal length ratio for a springbok, as calculated here. The animal length of a

springbok is assumed as 4.4 feet (1.3 meters) as indicated in Table 1.

G = Magnified field of view to animal length ratio for a blesbok, as calculated here. The animal length of a

blesbok is assumed as 6.2 feet (1.9 meters) as indicated in Table 1.

H = Magnified field of view to animal length ratio for a zebra, as calculated here. The animal length of a

zebra is assumed as 7.1 feet (2.2 meters) as indicated in Table 1.
