Ranging with mrads
Mrad measurements are very effective for ranging using
simple formulas. Knowing the size of the target or a
nearby object is essential to using these formulas.
Accurate measuring will depend on a very steady hold.
Be sure to solidly brace the arms when measuring or
use a tripod mount for maximum accuracy. Once you
have an accurate mrad reading, use one of the formulas
to calculate the distance.
Ranging a 6-foot man (2 yards) at 4 mrads yields 500 yards.

Using either the vertical or horizontal mrad scale,
place the reticle on the target of known dimension and
read the number of mrads spanned. Obtain maximum
accuracy in ranging by calculating exact mrad
measurements—try to estimate mrad measurement in
1/10s if possible.
