Prepares to fire (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aims

'prepares to fire' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for aims that I've seen before include "Targets and ambitions" , "Purposes or intentions" , "Objectives; points" , "objects" , "Sets sight on target" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
