Thread: Mils and mrads

I doubt you would you even notice the 2. 8 mm difference between units that's 1/8 inch in old money.
One of my scopes adjusts in half moa clicks and that's never been an issue. What spins my wheels is mil dot reticles with moa adjustments.
Might not be useful but these are the approx angles in military mils (6400 to the circle) the fact that there are 6283 milliradians in a circle adding a few on makes no practical difference it's less than 2% and makes the math easier.

Greetings Marty Henry,
Yes, not a union made in heaven. All three of my mil dot scopes are thus afflicted. I tend to use the knobs to zero for the load and ignore them thereafter. I seem to have quite a range of click values from 1 MoA 2.5 power Lyman, 2/3 MoA 8 power Lyman, a 6 power Pecar that could be 1/2 MoA or possibly 1 cm at 100m and others as well. Even a few friction adjusted ones. Keeps you on your toes as some are not marked.
Regards Grandpamac.
