maximum distance needed. Measure the bullet drop at each distance and then convert the drop into moa.
Multiply the moa by 4. Using this number, count the number of tick marks on the dial and mark the distance.
If Bullet Drop is: @300 yds @300 m
Use:
A 5-3 inches 3-79 cm
B 0-5 inches 50-3 cm
C -0 inches 40-50 cm
D 3- inches 34-40 cm
E -3 inches 30-34 cm
F 0- inches 5-30 cm
G 8-0 inches 0-5 cm
H Less than 8 inches Less than 0 cm Less than 39 inches Less than 99 cm
Example: Suppose you have a bullet drop of 9 inches at 300 yds. This is a drop of 3 moa. Since the
clicks are ¼ moa, the drop for 300 yds would be  tick marks.

need the mil dot for measuring distance, but is useful for precise leads for moving targets and exact
compensation for shooting in a crosswind. There are certain situations that may not allow one enough
time to range to an animal, and having the mil-dot reticle is second alternative in measuring distance.
The middle of this reticle contains four evenly spaced mil-dots arrayed outward vertically and
horizontally from the center. Actually, because the very center dot was left out to allow clear aiming, the
reticle represents five mils in any direction.
One mil is the space from center-dot to center-dot. One-half and one-quarter mils are easy to estimate
mentally; with practice, you can measure tenths of mils for the most exact ranging.
RANgINg WITh YOUR MIL-DOT RETICLE
The mil is an angular measurement— a milliradian—which equals almost precisely one yard at 000
yards, or one meter at 000 meters. This proportional relationship makes possible a simple formula to
compute distances:
The Measured Object's Width Or Height In Yards x 000
Object's Width Or Height In Mils
This formula works equally well with meters, but don't mix meters and yards: Measure the object in yards
to find the distance in yards, use meters to yield distances in meters.
