Rifle Scopes Table of common objects and sizes?

[tucansam]

Forgive me if this is the wrong forum, as you can see from my post count I'm new in town. Been reading on off for a while, finally posting. I thought about putting this in one of the marksmanship forums, but I figured a question relating to using mildot scopes might be proper here. So, with apologies in advance...

In the interest of making my data book as complete as possible, does anyone have a link to a database of common objects and their sizes? Milk jug, basketball, license plate, etc?

If you scroll almost to the bottom of this page:

you'll see what I'm looking for.

Thanks.

Re: Table of common objects and sizes?

I did make my own, taking measurements of common standardized street signs, average height of posts on barb wire fences, dimensions of irrigation pivots and gravity pipe, doorways, cinder blocks, protein tubs for cattle, etc

If I get the time and energy tomorrow I'll post some of the measurements, but I chose things common to my area, so I'm not sure what of it you would find useful. It really didn't take me a whole lot of time to do.

Liscense plate is a good one, did not think of that

Re: Table of common objects and sizes?

Thanks guys. When I was first issued a a mildot scope at work, I took a tape measure with me to the field for a week and measured everything I could find in my AOR.

Of course, my notebook walked away on a training day at the range, never to return. Good times.

Thanks. This is a good start to rebuilding my list.
