[QUOTE="timmay, post: 1017967, member: 38081"] mildot ranging is very accurate and can be done at long distances and doesn't require expensive range finders that can be sometimes unreliable and limited by distance....BUT having said that ranging distance in your reticle takes a lot of practice and for longer distance you have to be very still and be able to tell the difference between .1 mil and .2 mil in your measurement. Being 1/10th of a mil off at long distance can mean a complete miss. But after practice you can be extremely accurate at ranging. When hunting thug its kinda hard because the animals won't stay still for you and the size of one deer will be slightly different than the next and will throw off your formula. SO range finders are much quicker and handier for hunting, but its a very good idea to get proficient with ranging through your reticle, plus its fun and you feel more accomplished [/QUOTE]
