[QUOTE="CAM, post: 284299, member: 330"] Iron Worker I think your missing the whole concept! I don't have that scope or use mils, BUT If your mil spacing at 10 power is as you said 4" lower than the crosshair at 100yrds. then at 300 yards that same mil will be 3*4"= 12" under Cross then at (about) 550 yards that same mil dot will be 5.5*4"= 22" under Cross I think a mil is 3.6" at 100yrds. but I could be wrong I don't use mils! Most scopes are set on highest mag for calibration but not all. some scopes spacing changes with power change some don't. FFP vs SFP Their will be lot's of help on this, so 1 mil at 100 yards = 3.6" then that same mil dot at 200 yards is 7.2" 300 yards it is 10.8" 400................14.4" 500................18" You will get this is just takes some getting use to.
