Obviously a main gunsights magnification (5x or 2x, etc) is too low to be very useful to estimate range also. So it doesnt matter if they have 5 mil graduations. ie Fabio is correct.

I do not understand. Look at Tiger sight at Fprado site. Tiger uses 4 mil intervals between markings, Sherman uses 5 mil intervals between markings. Not very big difference.

Heres some info on sherman and tiger gunsights, seems the tigers gunner has a better field of view than the sherman gunners. Not sure why you think its the other way around?

Sherman gunner has 2 sights and a periscope. Tiger only has 1 sight.
So Sherman gunner had (late war, but earlier same in principle):
- M71D Telescope sight 5x 13°
- M10 Periscope sight 6x 11°
- M10 Periscope 1x 42°
So, much better view field and many more options for Sherman gunner.
