cant you adjust the scope to focus at different distances
If only it was that easy. One click is like 1/4" at 25 yards, so you need to know how far the bullet will fall and all that fun crap so it takes a while to re-sight it at a different range.

man..it must have really made you mad.
mil dot. (well that's the only thing that comes to my mind)
If that's it, then no. Just two strait lines that meet in the center.
ya, snipe a hard drive. LOL Just so happens I have a old 40 gig thats dead and just sitting in my closet but I don't own a gun.
A bit off topic but since we are on the topic of computer destruction, I would like to see someone have a computer all plugged in and then from a safe distance just throw a huge pail of water on it or shoot it with a hose.

mil dots, if you know the height of an object, and you have a scope\binoculars with mils on them, you can calculate the distance of the object, makes it much easier to focus in on it, although i guess your not going to do that at a HDD, since you know you have more than 1 shot.
dunno if they use mil dot ranging in hunting though, would seem logical though.
EDIT:
mils is a distance of measure, you have tiny dots on the crosshairs that represent a mil, or a fraction of one depending on what scope your using.

thats a simulation\teaching tool on how to mil dot range with a scope.
