Mil relation Formula

[@williamseifert169]

It doesn't matter what unit of measure you use. All you have to do is take the target size (in whatever unit of measure you want) and multiply it by 1000, then divide it by the number of mils it covers. THEN, after you've done that, convert the units to yards. (Or meters, or whatever you want to convert it to) Example: A Target that is 12" tall. 12" x 1000 = 12000 inches 12000"/# of mils (let's say 3) = 4000" So the target is 4000" away. NOW we convert inches to yards. 4000"/36"(the number of inches in a yard) = 111 yards away. Another example, a target that is 57" tall (a completely random number) 57"x1000=57000" 57000"/4 (or whatever # of mils it is) =14250 inches away 14250"/36" (inches per yard) = 395.8 yards away Simple.

Very good

[@Robert-00768]

If doing it in Inches just use 25.4 for the multiplication and then divide it and BAM you get meters away which most of the world would enjoy(Mortars and Artillery at least want it in meters lol)

DoubleTaps way stops you from having to use so many unnecessary zeros

[@craigsimonsen5780]

Thank you so much you explained in a way I can listen and pay attention

[@DenverLoveless]

inches x 1000 / mils / 36 = range in yards (inches x 27.77 / mils = yards also) inches x 25.4 / mils = meters

[@rachlar4447]

The horizontal line it serve at what??

[@cadennapier6417]

So do you use this in conjunction with moa to find your adjustment like after you find your range you plug it in with moa

[@rkba4923]

Try that on a Coyote Stand, pre-dawn in -17 Wind Chill and two coyotes coming in. lol

[@bntaft5133]

Well explained

Question : zooming in on target will affect the space it takes up on the hash marks... I don’t understand how you can calculate range if the targets size on your reticle depends on your zoom level... no? Help me lord

[@ryanrogers5435]

very late reply so I'd assume you have figured it out by now but that's where first and second focal plain comes into play. First focal plain reticle changes with the zoom where as second does not which yes would affect the calculations so it is only going to be accurate on a certain power of zoom, generally the highest or close to it.

[@rontate7719]

And or fixed power like the 10x42 as, Which may not apply as the question was reticle size changing, Been told thier are hacks or shortcuts about those changing reticle but I ain't even mastered this one,,, I ain't even sure what I have,moa moa or mil moa or what. It's got mil dots jeezzzz

[@katashi222]

To be accurate use a FFP mils scope. So it will be accurate at any measurement through the rectcle.

[@diosdadoapias]

The problem with your demo is you did show how to use the cross hair in determining the size of your targets: 1 is the dividend as size of the target and the divisor as size of the target. show how you obtain the target sizes using the cross hair. The computation can be easy after that using the calculator and we have the formula to follow.

[@Regina_Landry]

He did show you how to obtain the size of target using the mil dots. Rewatch the video.

[@DenverLoveless]

You must first know the range to obtain size of target. Likewise you must know the size of target to obtain range. Example: Known range is 668 yds and target is 2 mils wide/tall. 668 x 36 x 2 / 1000 = 48.096" (size of target in inches). Now known target size is 48.096" x 1000 / 2 / 36 = 668 yds . If you round to 48 you will loose 2 yds to 666. Which is well within danger space at that distance so no problem. Assuming you're using a capable round of course.

[@pigroper5]

Very handy.

[@saint5203]

I was confused about what one mil was

[@luiszavala6434]

Well. you mention how to measures the target ok, but for me was not satisfying, do to a lack of explanation me never saw Exactly how to use the Cross hair with respect to mill and dot, a lot of peoples that never has seen a through a telescope using the cross hair and the target to get it hit. sorry if my explanation is not clear thanks for your patient.

[@DD-gi6kx]

why do so many make videos and don't understand that the unit of measure is radians, and mil only means 1/1000th....please get your crap together and actually talk mrad or milliradians

[@scottbutler2761]

OMG how about talk in modern millimetre .. Spray can 250 mm tall . it is not a inch radiant scope it is a Mil radiant . Do a Video talking in Mil so the rest of the modern world can understand . at 100 meters = how many mm at 200 meters = how many mm

[@brockbah2048]

A milliradian converts to 1/1000 of ANY unit, we're not locked to mm. Coming from MOA we're already using inches...
