USING MIL DOT RETICLES FOR HOLDOVER
Once you know how to range your target with a Mil Dot reticle, and using the previous
example, you can use the reticle instead of the turrets to make adjustments with holdover. For
example, your range tells you that the 12” target is 300 yards away, (12”*27.778) / (1.1Mil).
Based on the Federal .308 Win ballistic info in the previous example, you will need to hold 1.47
Mils down on the vertical crosshair and fire.
