[QUOTE="dragon798, post: 2316947, member: 51909"] Actually 1 mil is EXACTLY 36" at 1000yds. It's not an approximate. 1 mil is 1/1000 of any distance. So it's equal to 1" at 1000", 1 meter at 1000 meters, or 1 cubit at 1000 cubits. Too many people attempt to make it difficult, it is not. If you are looking at something 1760 yards away, then 1 mil equals 1.760 yards. As far as drop is concerned, get the inches out of your head. You have a measuring scale 4" in front of your eye; use the reticle and don't try to guesstimate the inches. If the reticle says you are .3mil high and .2mil left, then adjust down .3 and right .2 I totally agree with others on the ballistics app, but you should also get Frank Galli's book, Precision Rifle Marksmanship. His explanation made me a believer in the mil-radian system. [/QUOTE]
