Range, scope (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

compass

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'range' is the first definition.
(compass can mean range or scope)

'scope' is the second definition.
(I know that scope can be written as compass)

(Other definitions for compass that I've seen before include "Range, scope" , "Range - vessel's navigating instrument" , "Directional instrument" , "Moss cap (anag.)" , "Device with magnetic needle for determining direction" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
