Mil Dot reticles should all be standard, no matter what. Otherwise mass confusion.
A mil dot should subtend (cover) 0.2mils.
A mil should always be 3.6" @ 100yds.
All mil dot reticles should be in first focal plane (my opinion) keeping everything constent.

Yea, that would make things easier if you did not have to worry about your power setting when ranging or holding over.
For my eyes, a prarie dog at 800 yards requires more than 10x. My Tasco Custom is calibrated at 10x, so I found another calibration point near 20x where I can use half readings. So now, I have 2 sets of range and drop charts to tape to my stock. One for 10x and another for 20x. Confusing, yes, but it works.

Yes, its fine to have two mildot settings!!!
But my problem is the cross hair whidt. In the legend is thicker then I would see. So I am planning to buy another bushnell mil dot, But the elite mild dot is finer then the Elite?
I don't know this...

I have both Legend and Elite Mil-Dot. Will compare them today and get back to you.

Since the original post is over 15 years I doubt the OP still needs to know.
