What reading level is Suggestions to Military Riflemen book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the first shot he gets a "3" at 10 o'clock, and the location of this shot appears to be 20 inches above the center of the bull's-eye and 33 inches to the left of the center. M he now reduces his elevation 33 yards, or to 792 yards, and moves his wind-gauge i point to the right, or to i point left (see "Table of Sight-Adjustments"), and if the weather condi- tions remain the same and he gets his shot off Suggestions to Military Riflemen. 93 correctly, he should get a hi;t very near the cen- t...er of the bull's-eye. Of course, one cannot ad- just his elevation to any such reading as 792 yards, but he makes a try at it, and gets it just a hair's breadth below 800 yards, and has to be satisfied with that. He may have struck the correct elevation, or he may be as much as a foot out.
If he was using the micrometer adjuster and his elevation for the first shot read 49 minutes, he would reduce it to 463^2 minutes to lower the next hit 20 inches, which would give exactly that result.
If, however, the rifleman was ignorant of the value of movements on the sights -that is, if he had no "Table of Sight-Adjustments" and no mi- crometer, he might make too large or too small a move, and instead of getting a, bull for his sec- ond shot, he would be just as liable to get a "3" or a "4, " and a continuation of this kind of guess- work would ruin his score.
