9. MIL-DOT RETICLE
Your night vision riflescope DN463 has a Mil-Dot reticle
installed which helps you determine distance to the target if you
know its actual size.
The Use of a Mil-Dot reticle:
Viewing the target through the riflescope place the edge of
one post against one edge (top, bottom, or either side) of
the target so that the crosshair extends along either its width
or height.
Using the dots, measure along the crosshair to the opposite
edge of the target.
Once the measurement of the target has been estimated in
mils, use the following formula to determine the range:
The Measured object's width or height in Yards x 1000
Object's Width or Height in Mils
or
= Range in yards
The Measured object's width or height in Meters x 1000
Object's Width or Height in Mils
or
= Range in Meters
The Measured object's width or height in Yards x 1000
Object's Width or Height in Mils
or
= Range in Meters
Example:
1.33 yards x 1000 = 1330 .
2.5 mils 2.5
= 532 Yards
