TARGETING SYSTEM
A targeting system operable to be used with a bow to assist an operator with striking a target with a projectile. The targeting system comprising an accelerometer configured to generate acceleration data, an attitude sensor configured to generate attitude data, a display, a memory, and a processor. The processor is configured to profile steadiness using the acceleration data, profile roll using the attitude data, present on the display based on the steadiness profile one of an indication of unsteadiness represented by circular segments of relatively greater diameter with relatively greater unsteadiness, and an indication of steadiness represented by absence of the circular segments, and present on the display based on the roll profile one of an indication of level represented by at least one horizontal line and an indication of roll represented by at least one canted triangle and absence of the at least one horizontal line.

Zero-stop turret
A zero-stop mechanism comprises first and second stop members and a movement limit member. The second stop member is releasably secured to an adjustment mechanism. The movement limit member extends around a turret assembly and has a substantially annular main body from which a lug extends. In a first rotational direction of the adjustment mechanism, the second stop member comes into contact with a first side of the lug whereby the main body is rotated in the first rotational direction until a second side of the lug comes into contact with the first stop member. In a second rotational direction of the adjustment mechanism, the second stop member comes into contact with the lug second side whereby the main body is rotated in the second rotational direction until the lug first side contacts the first stop member.

Embedded cant indicator for rifles
A device comprised of bubble level inserted into and secured within a cavity located above the rifle grip and behind the barrel to facilitate the measurement and compensation of the rifle's cant while lining up the rifle's sights. The device is precision machined to allow the bubble to be aligned with the axis of the barrel to produce a true “zero-cant” condition. Graduation markings are placed on either left or right of the bubble level to allow the user to better judge the relative degree of cant. A light source is placed adjacent to the bubble level to illuminate cant for a shooter in a dark environment. Methods of using the embedded cant indicator for precision shooting are presented.

ELECTRONIC ARCHERY SIGHTS
Aspects of the present disclosure deal with archery sights mounted or mountable on an archery bow. The sight incorporates a sight pin and an adjustment assembly in combination with an electronic module to indicate or control the desired position of the sight pin. The electronic module calculates and displays correlated target distances based on the position of the sight pin.
