7Using the Data ObtainedWith Mil-Based ReticlesOnce you have estimated the distance to the target with the reticle, thereare two primary methods of using this information. Both require that youknow the specific bullet drop of the ammunition you are using, measured inmilliradians.If your bullet drop has been measured in inches, a conversion to MOA willneed to be applied using the formula below.(Bullet Drop in Inches ÷ 1.047)= Bullet Drop in MOATarget Distance in Hundreds of Yards/MetersOnce the bullet drop has been measured in MOA, use the formula below toconvert MOA to mils:Bullet Drop in MOA= Bullet Drop in mils3.44
Example 1: If you have a 500 yard/meter shot and you know your bulletdrops 65 inches at that distance, you would follow the steps below:Convert 65 inches to MOA:(65" ÷ 1.047)=62= 12.4 MOA55Convert MOA to mils:12.4 MOA= Bullet drop in mils = 3.63.44 MOA per milThis bullet would be dropping 3.6 mils at 500 yards.Example 2: If your bullet drops 130 Inches at 650 yards/meters, the processwould look like this:(130" ÷ 1.047)=124= 19 MOA6.56.519 MOA= Bullet drop in mils = 5.53.44 MOA per milThis bullet would be dropping 5.5 mils at 650 yards.Note: The numbers used in the calculations above have been rounded and are forexplanation purposes only.8
