What if my caliber/load is not listed?
While we have taken great care to include as many calibers as possible and brand names in our ballistics tables, new loads are continually developed. Also, some shooters load
their ammunition with unique ballistic characteristics. If you cannot find your load in our ballistic tables, you can still use the bullet drop feature of the laser ranging binocular. As
above, sight in your rifle at 100 yds. Then shoot the rifle, without adjusting the riflescope, at 300 yds.
Measure the bullet drops from the point of aim. Using this drop, select the ballistic group from below. If you are shooting long distances, you may want to check the bullet drop
at 500 yds. Because there is enormous variation in rifle barrels, chambers, and hand loads, you should thoroughly test the ballistic setting before actual hunting. You may need to
move up or down one group depending upon your tests.
After you have confirmed your selection of Rifle mode with the ballistic group you need (by pressing the Fire button while it appears in the display), the following item is the Unit
of Measure option (13). Pressing the Mode button will toggle the Units from the default "Y" (yards) to "M" (meters). Press the Fire button to confirm your selection (leave units
set to Yards or change it to metric).
Next, you will see "SD," meaning Sight-In Distance. Briefly pressing the Mode button will cycle through a choice of 100, 150, 200, or 300 yards. Press the Fire button to confirm
and save the setting when your preferred sight-in distance is displayed.
Lastly, you will have a choice of formats for the bullet drop/holdover data that will appear in the secondary numeric display (14): IN (inches)*, ML (Mils), or MOA (moa). Briefly
press the Mode switch to cycle through the three options, pressing the Fire button to confirm and save the setting when your preferred bullet drop format is displayed. *Note: if
the unit of measure is set to Meters (M), the bullet drop is calculated and displayed in CM (centimeters) rather than inches.
Rifle Mode Example
The line of sight is 376 yards, the angle is -33 degrees, and the bullet-drop/holdover is 28 inches. ARC takes into account ballistic data based on your caliber and load from
distances of 100-800 yards and compensates for any uphill and downhill angles that also affect bullet-drop.
Line of Sight = 376 Yards
Degree of Angle = -33°
Holdover/Bulletdrop =28 Inches
The Fusion™ X ranging binocular's state-of-the-art digital technology allows the hunter or shooter to know precisely where to hold for an effective shot. This information
should be treated as a helpful guide or tool, and in no way should it ever replace practice and familiarity with your rifle, cartridge, and load. We encourage practice shooting
at different ranges, so you know how your rifle, cartridge, and load will perform under various conditions. Always know what is behind your bullet; if you don't know, don't
take the shot.
• Reticle Select: The Setup menu allows you to select your preferred type for the center of the display (for all modes). Press the Mode button to cycle through Circle, Dot, and
Circle with Dot (this is the default) options. Press the Fire button to confirm the selection of the reticle you prefer and exit the Setup menu.
• ACTIVESYNC™ Brightness Setting: ACTIVESYNC is always on, allowing the display to adjust the display contrast to the background automatically. The Setup menu allows you
to select your brightness preference (for all modes). Press the Mode button to cycle through Brightness 25% (default setting), Brightness 50%, Brightness 75%, and Brightness
100% options. Press the Fire button to confirm the selection of Brightness you prefer and exit the Setup menu.
