EXPERT MARSKMAN HELP NEEDED!
EDIT: My information has been found from http://www.snipersparadise.com
ANOTHER EDIT: I have another question, which is really quite important for me. How big would someone say a USMC/PLA/MEC character model be in inches or feet? Is it 6 ft. flat or something? I need to know this for this formula:
Size of target (in inches) * 25.4 / by the height of the target in MILs = Range (in meters) *= multiply / = divide
Okay. I've studied up on the factors of long range marksmanship, including range estimation, weather affects, leading, MIL and MOA, elevation, temperature, altitude, humidity, wind, etc. Why, because I am preparing for the Marine Corps, and I look to get into Scout/Sniper School in Quantico, Virginia. Then, BF2 came along and I thought sniping on it would be fun, including the favored ghille suit, and M24. But, there's one problem, I haven't found a forumula or resolution to the BF2 bullet drop problem. I know, it's been discussed before, but I can't find those old posts anymore. Can someone help me with this? I am positive that I am capable of making long ranged kills, from 300-400 or maybe even 500 meters away (although the damn fog obscures vision at that range.) if I know how to calculate how great the bullet drop is from so many meters away. Can someone help me with this? PLEASE!
In short, my question is:
How do I calculate how much my bullet will drop (due to gravity) as it reaches its destination?
Also, the varied scopes in BF2 are different, ofcourse. The MIL dots are at different sizes, and I think this is going to affect my shots. Look:
As you can see, the M95 is my least favorite rifle because THERE ARE NO HORIZONTAL MILs I don't include the Dragunov because I despise its optics and won't use it, unless close range city battles.
