[QUOTE="kiwi3006, post: 305994, member: 8927"] If I remember correctly one mil = 3.6 MOA. To make the mark equal LESS than one mil you would need to increase the magnification of the scope above the magnification the TMR is calibrated for. For example if the TMR was calibrated for 10X than increasing to 20X would halve the value and make the one mil mark equal to 1.8 MOA. If you increase the calibrated magification by 1.8 that would make the one mil mark equal to 2 MOA and the half mil marks would equal 1 MOA. My gut feeling is you won't be able to increase the magnifciation that much because they have probably calibrated the TMR reticle to work at near max magnification. If you DECREASE the magnification to 0.9 of the calibrated mag eg 9X instead of 10X then the one mil mark will equal 4 MOA and the half mil equal 2 MOA. The easiest way to do it is to make up an accurate 1 inch grid and place it at 100 yds. Fiddle with the scope magnification until the grids line up with what you want. 1.047 inches at 100 yds = 1 MOA. Hope my ramblings make sense to you. Stu. [/QUOTE]
