How to use the MRAD reticle and Turret.

#riflescopes #longrangeshooting #hunting

Learn the basic fundamentals of the Mil-Dot riflescope reticle and turret. You may have heard this before but "everything begins with a strong solid foundation". In this video you'll receive a solid foundation on the key elements of the Mil-Dot riflescope system. Using graphics that are easy to understand you'll be able to absorb the ideas and principles behind each key element in the Mil-Dot scope system quickly. The difference of this video, as opposed to others, is that I take an approach which both defines and shows the application of the key elements (reticle, turret, and distance to target) all at once.

I take a slightly unorthodox approach when teaching others about the Mil-dot reticle system as I define and integrate all the key elements of the Mil-Dot scope together. By using this approach - defining what a milliradian is, how we arrive at it, and how it's applied by the shooter when using the reticle and the scope turrets to range a target - any learner can quickly understand the interrelated elements of the Mil-Dot scope system.

thanks for an actual thorough explanation, drives me nuts when people talk only mils and don't stress the unit is radians

Flip! This has been super helpful. Thank you so much. It explains why I've been going too low and then back too high..

This is the video iv been searching for. This is perhaps the one tutorial that, not only explains the conversion’s, but addresses the turret adjustment.
I know I will have to verify those adjustments myself, but I feel I’m closer to that than I have been.

Thank you and well done👏🏽👏🏽

Very underrated video. Thank you! Very easy to follow.

Thank you! Love how you explained this

[leighmylove]

Finally someone simplified this. Thank you.

[jayroller]

As someone who is new to all of this, this was very helpful. I’m going to save this video and rewatch it a few times. Thank you!

[danielsanmetzger]

This makes so much sense. You did a fantastic job.

I wish I would have "googled" this years ago; simple, exact and well presented. A must see for target shooters and wannabees'.

I live in the metric system, but I fully understoof what you tell here. Thanks I understood it with a bit of going back and forth. thank you!

[stephenwarren]

Excellent explanation of the fundamentals of how this works. Appreciate it.

[kalebmatthies]

Probably the best fast explanation out there

[chrisbernacki]

Yup this what I have been looking for.
New to using scope with milrad.
Awesome. Thanks

[MoppelMat]

if you tend to do this in m and cm, you get 1 click = 1cm at 100m 2cm at 200m. it's really perfectly made for metric

[charlesscioli]

Thank you for the very informative video and the great chart work as well. Thanks for your help!

[jaseverchanged]

I totally understand the process now thanks!!

Hiya Tim, letting you know the link to your new video in this vids description is broken. cheers

[rumsin]

Very good, informative video. Well explained!! Thanks

Great job explaining what radians are…why did you have to muck it up by taking a metric measurement and relate it to imperial measurements? That’s where everyone gets confused. As a shooter or hunter, just stick with either system (MOA or Mils) and don’t worry about conversions unless you’re ranging with your reticle and need to convert mils to yds for bullet drop. If you’re a hardcore Mils shooter, all your bullet drops should already be calculated in Mils and not require ANY conversion to imperial units or MOA equivalents. BTW, I’m American and quite familiar with MOA and yds…but Mils is a clearly superior system when ranging using your reticle. You can use ANY unit for target size and calculate range in the same units by direct measurement of the target in Mils using a ranging reticle…then convert the resultant range to whatever units you want.

One of the best videos about this topic, thank you very much sir, I have one question, a elevation with 1 click = 1 min, what this mean?
