Has anybody ever thought of getting a laser range finder, and getting a metronome? If you do your range/average muzzle velocity, you get a time value. Once you have the "rhythm" in your head, you can estimate alot better where they'll be in the 1 or 1.1 seconds or whatever. (assuming they're moving at constant velocity no wind etc)
That's about as lame as a guy using a calculator to set his scope vs. distance to................. works for real steel, for airsoft it's non-existant and one would have to be a mathmatical genius to create a working formula, only to find out it won't work either because of the variability of air currrents between the shooter and the target.
