Since I wrote about understanding Millirads yesterday, I wanted to touch on using Mil-Dot scopes as the two of them are intertwined.

I give a, hopefully, easy to understand account of how to use a Mil-Dot scope accurately and effectively to judge range to target and also how to use them for hold-over.

Hope it helps :)
