Title: Learning about Mil-Dots

I just got a new Mill-Dot scope, so I was searching around the net and found this article that may help others as well as me. Enjoy the read!

Think there was another post here on the forum about how to use 'tactical turrets' which might also help.

I got into Mil-Dot scopes a number of years ago. They are great for hold over/under if you know your distance ... which mil-dot can do for you as well. I prefer the "fixed power" units because you don't have to worry about what "power" you are on to "range estimate" and "hold overs". The range estimation is really only good for longer distances than we shoot though. But still ... I use them for hold overs.

IMHO, a mil-dot is a nice tool for hunters.

There is a program called "Shooter" that is for the android phone platform (and perhaps others ??). If you have a gun that will shoot over 500 FPS, it will give you a "shooting solution" for various conditions. It costs about $10.00. So far ... I like it.
