Using Mil Dots?

Tried a Mildot Master, and found it very limiting. It was designed to work with minute or man. It doesn't handle smaller targets very well.

You can make a chart that will allow you to range even quicker, that you can customize however you want. This is the one I have in my wrist coach:

You can get finer resolution with simple math. For example, the distance of a 3" target is just the 6" target distance divided by 2. You can see this looking at the 6" and 12" distance values in the same row and the 4" and 8" distance values in the same rows.

Distance is half if the number of mils the target fits in is double. Look at the distances in any column for 1.0 mil and 0.5 mil. So, the distance of a 3" plate that measures 0.5 mil is the same as the distance of a 6" plate that measures 1.0 mil. The distance of a 36" target that measures 3.0 mils is the same as an 18" target that measures 1.5 mils.

It's addictive but you learn a bit from it too. Sometimes I double it up with the Mil-Dot iphone app.

Yes it is addictive. I've got to the point where im ranging within 50m. Pretty damn awesome, considering yesterday I had no idea what I was doing. I almost bought the full version, but at 50$ USD is too much with the dollar this low.
