[QUOTE="300rum, post: 117254, member: 6231"] Dear Eaglet, so,this formula is working the same for 100 or 900 yrds. for examples: I know ar 100yrds 1 mil = 3.5 (round mil) or 3.6 (the other one), and the distance between mils is [email="3.5@100yrd."]3.5@100yrd.[/email] but at 200yrd the distance between 2 mils is 3.5x2=7inch and so on at different distances. but in ballistic chart for different ammunition at different distances I have to use the "MOA correction"/3.4384=X mils at that distances. That is right? And about the reading the distance between 2 mils at different distances IS NOT APPLYING IN OUR CASES. jUST LET ME KNOW IF I GOT IT RIGHT. All i have to do is to use 3.5 or 3.6 inches for mils in function of the scope what I used. 1 moa = 1.047" 1 mildot = 3.6" so... 3.6/1.047 = 3.4384 moaS Per mildot Now, lets say you need to go up 11.75 moa's and you want to use your mildots. 11.75/3.4384 = 3.42 mildots... just use 3.5 mildots. If you have mildots and you want to convert it to moas just multiply for 3.4384. I hope this helps. Thank you 300rum [/QUOTE]
