[QUOTE="300rum, post: 138127, member: 6231"] The basics: Set the scope at maximum power. Now at 100yards between 2 mils you have 3.6 inches. at 200yards = 3.6 inches x2 = 7 inches at 300 yards = 3.6 inches x3 = 9.6 inches and so on... So if you know the approx size of your target you can ver easy approximate the distance. Ex: 18inches chest sieze for Deer, and you see in your scope at 20x the chest is exactle between 2 mils using the formula: (size target x 27.74)/MILS reading = distance to the target in yards. so (18x27.74)/1 = 499 yards Cris [/QUOTE]
