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.
