Freycinet. I believe you are correct. From another thread, I saw that the COD MKII gunsight has either a bug or was incorrectly designed/coded... Thus the doubling of the range setting is a 'workaround' to have the correct size/image of the target aircraft at the desired Convergence distance (filling the space between the horizontal bars). So, until fixed in a patch, one would have to set the Sight Range dial at 400 yards if one had set Convergence at 200 yards.
