[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 3065241, member: 116181"] Mils are 1/10th of anything at 100 of itself. 1/10th of a meter at 100 meters 1/10th of a yard at 100 yards 1/10th of a mile at 1 mile And so on The hardest part for me is remembering that 1/10th of a yard is 3.6" and not 1". So 1mil is 3.6" at 100 yards, and 0.1" mil clicks are 0.36" at 100 yards. If you want to be super-technical it's 1/1000th of something, but I like the 1/10th at 100 rule better personally. You're 100% correct that once you get it in the chart is could me MOA, MILs, or thicknesses of a piece of paper, all that matters is you click as many times as the chart tells you to. [/QUOTE]
