Using the Mil Dot Reticle for Ranging

The Equations:

Size of target in yards X 1000 Size of Target in Mils

Size of target in inches X 27.778 Size of target in Mils

Size of target in inches X 25.4 Size of target in Mils

=Range in Yards

=Range in Yards

=Range in Meters

Example 1: Looking through the riflescope, I located a preset target that has a known size of 12”x12” square. By using the Mil Dots I measured the target to have a Mil reading of 1. What is my distance to the target?

	Known size of target: 12”x 12”	12 X 27.778	= 333.33 Yards
	Mil Reading: 1Mil	1 Mil
