    Schmidt & Bender 4-16x50 precision hunter ##HELP##

    Hi everyone,
    Im really hoping someone can help me here!

    Ive got an older Schmidt & Bender 4-16x50 scope (precision Hunter model). Ive added a cpl pics of the turrets. Its a Mil-dot reticle (has x4 mil-dots in each quadrant
    before the posts.

    The problem I have is I have forgotten what values each click on the evelvation turret is??? I've been using the "shooter app" for calculating elevation in past but lost all the input data so Im having to input this again. I have found all load and rifle data I need (from my notebook when sighted in) but Im unsure what each click on the elevation turret represents. There are 32 clicks range on the turret. I seem to THINK I was told this scope was 5mm per click BUT IM NOT POSITIVE so would like some reassurance please.

    My next question is: IF each click represents 5mm, then in my shooter app do I tick 1/5 in "turret elevation graduation" or 1/20, 1/10, 1/8 ........etc.

    Lastly, just to clarify, IF it is 5mm per click, AND I should tick 1/5 in the app turret elevation garduation, THEN does that mean each click on the turret equates to 0.2 Mil?

    For example, if say I calc based on a distance of 800m and the app states "6.0mils (30 clicks) would that mean I would need to hold over 4 mil dots on the reticle and wind the elevation turret 10 clicks?

    I hope this makes sense.

    Much appreciated

    Brad
