Determining distance to the target (for 12х
magnification only).
By using the Mil-dot reticle and knowing the size of
the target, it is possible to determine distance to the
target with enough accuracy that is required to
acquire the target (or make windage adjustment to
compensate the bullet drop).
Procedures:
1) Make sure that the riflescope is set to 12х
magnification;
2) Estimate real horizontal (or vertical) size of
the target, to which you will be determining
distance;
3) Look at the cross hair of the riflescope so
that one dimension of the target is visible
through the Mil-dot reticle (see Fig. 3),
4) Count number of divisions in length (or
height) of the target (the more precise is your
knowledge of the size of the target, the more
accurately you can determine distance to the
target, which is very important for small targets
located at distances of more than 450m),
5) Distance can be determined by the following
formula:
