Stadiametric rangefinding, or the stadia method is a technique of measuring distances with a telescopic instrument, such as a scope.

This is useful in cases where a Rangefinder is not readily available. Many scopes in Arma3 from various Addons implement this functionality.

Faulty Rangefinders

However, not all Scopes that contain methods of rangefinding are implemented correctly.

The following entries are examples of non-functioning rangefinders:
