Boats,

I don't understand why the Russian scope you are describing would be any simpler that any other well-made scope.

If you know the distance to the target and the the minutes of angle of change in the scope adjustment graduations, than that's about as simple as it gets.

If I am shooting at 100 yards, my scope has 1/4 minute graduations and my shot hits 1 inch high and 1 1/2 inches to the right, then I know that I have to put in 4 clicks down and six clicks to the left to be on target.

It usually takes me 3 shots to sight in.
