[QUOTE="jebel, post: 2268434, member: 106189"] If you want to know one mil at a given distance in inches, convert the distance to inches and divide by 1000. 63 yards x 36 inches per yard = 2,268 inches. Divide by 1000 = 2.268 inches per mil at 63 yards. So your offset of 2.75 inches is 1.213 mils (2.75 inches / 2.268). If you prefer to know mils at a given distance in cm or whatever other unit of measure, the math is the same. Just convert your distance to that unit and divide by 1000. A mil by definition is simply one thousandth the distance, irrespective of the unit used. [/QUOTE]
