    Range find/measure some objects (garden, from one side of the road to the other, etc.) and use them as a mental reminder/comparison to range a target.

    And the mark one hairy eyeball can be quite good at rangefinding with some practice too.

    Oh, and practice, practice, practice (also known as any excuse to shoot).

    These are the target distances for UKAHFT

    TARGETS (and Permitted Distances)
    • 15mm to 19mm Hit zone Targets from 13yds up to a maximum of 25 yd's.
    • 20mm to 24mm Hit zone Targets from 8yds up to a maximum of 30 yd's.
    • 25mm to 34mm Hit zone Targets from 8yds up to a maximum of 35 yd's.
    • 35mm to 45mm Hit zone Targets from 8yds up to a maximum of 45 yd's..

    If you can figure out the approximate size of the hit zone, the table above may give you a clue as to the possible range of distances the target might be at.
