Finding The Range With Mil-Dot Scopes by Steven Woodruff
Many a hunter has passed up a clear shot at game because it was far enough away that he couldn't estimate range accurately enough to appropriately compensate for bullet drop. Several methods to accurately determine range are now available including optical and laser range finders but these involve another piece of equipment to buy, maintain, and carry. In recent years rifle scopes with Range Finding reticles have become available to hunters at prices within reach of any budget. The mil-Dot Reticle is arguably the most accurate means of estimating range using a manual optical device.
The mil-dot reticle is based on the milliradian angular measurement system where a mil is an angle equal to 1/6400 of the way around a circle. A mil also conveniently equals a movement or displacement of one yard at a distance of 1000 yards. Long used by the military for artillery and then for snipers where knowing an accurate range to the target is essential, milliradian measurement is now readily available to the sport hunter in the form of mil-dot Reticle Rifle scopes.
The usual configuration for a mil-dot rangefinder scope is four dots evenly spaced on each of the small crosshairs with the center left clear for better aiming. The beginning of the thicker crosshair is one mill from the fourth dot making a ranging capability of 10 mils in both the vertical and horizontal directions. The 1 yard at 1000 yards distance between dots will only be true usually at 10x magnification or the maximum magnification available but this does vary between scopes so be sure to read the instructions that come with your rifle scope.
Once you have your scope magnification on the proper setting (if yours is a variable power instead of a fixed power scope) all it takes is a simple formula to calculate distances.
(The Target's Width or Height in Yards x 1000)/ The Target's Width or Height in Mils = Range in Yards
A useful alternative is,
(Object Size in Inches x 27.8)/Object Size in Mils = Range in Yards.
As you can probably already tell, a table of ranges by size and mils is going to be very useful and one of the best is a free download from Cheaper Than Dirt. It has target size in both inches and yards across the top with the number of mils spanned down the side. Where your two measurements cross in the middle is the range to the target in yards.
You will also have noted by now that while the formulas are simple and the table is simpler yet both require you to know the size of your target. This is a matter of quick and easy homework. It is matter of only a few minutes of research to find that the depth of the chest of an average deer is 18 inches. If the deer you see in your mil-dot rangefinder rifle scope splits a mil-dot with his back and splits the second mil-dot down with his breast bone he is 250 yards away. Similar size information is just as easy and quick to find for anything from prairie dogs to elk to muskox.
Knowing the average size of your target game and determining the number of mil-dots spanned to calculate range is just the beginning of the usefulness of mil-dot rifle scopes so I'll cover more in a second article.
About the Author
Steve Woodruff has hunted for forty-five years. A Michigan native, he most liked rifle scopes light gathering powers. After moving west Steve learned to appreciate range finding reticles and scopes with built-in laser range finders. See what he has for you at http://www.rangefinderriflescopes.com.
