To address and correct errors in measuring ballistic dispersion that arises from an unknown aim point.
Identified two components of ballistic dispersion: due to unknown aim point and cloud dispersion.
Critiqued existing measurement procedures for overlooking the aim point component.
Applied statistical corrections to the methodology for better accuracy when assessing dispersion.
Current procedures underestimate total dispersion by not accounting for the aim point.
Introducing an elementary statistical correction leads to accurate dispersion measures.
Validation of the circular normal distribution assumption improves analysis.
