[QUOTE="Canadian Bushman, post: 952544, member: 41122"] I use the formula (( target in inches ) \ MOA ) x 100 = distance I.E. 32/4 x 100 = 800 This is simple enough that most of the time i can do it in my head. Often i estimate the largest the target could be, then the smallest it could be and average the two together for my target distance. ( This helps in mirage ) Then i range the target and see if my estimation was close enough to yeild a hit. I do this before every shot in practice. Every so often me and a friend will go do a cold bore contest where we walk to different ranges and leave the rangefinders in the truck. 6-7 hundred is my max for mil-ing a target. [/QUOTE]
