Devices and Methods of Rapidly Zeroing a Riflescope Using a Turret Display
A turret display device is used for rapidly zeroing a riflescope. The turrets on an improved riflescope provide a turret position signal. A display of the turret display device comprises turret display cross hairs displayed relative to a target icon. When the turret display device receives a turret position signal, turret display cross hairs move to show the relative movement as indicated by the received turret position signal. When a distance is processed by the turret display device, the turret display cross hairs move to show an aiming point relative to a target icon based on the current zero of the riflescope. A computing element captures a first image and later captures a second image and compares the two images to determine a change. In some embodiments the change is used to automatically zero the riflescope. In some embodiments the change and the range is used to automatically determine an aiming point. The change is used to automatically determine wind In some embodiments the turret display device is integrated into a hand held rangefinder, smart phone, or riflescope. A riflescope having turrets which each provide a turret position signal.
