I've read the sticky, and watched that one youtube video... But, is there anywhere else I can find some detailed info about using this reticle? I have the Steiner 5-25x56 military with it. I love the scope.. I have a basic understanding... but I would really like to learn the scope inside and out. I can say I'm already thinking about buying another. That way I dont have to learn any other reticles for these two rifles I'm building. Any help would be appreciated.

Not trying to be a smart ass at all but have you seen the users manual? It's rather detailed in explaining the reticle break down and can be found here.

there is also the http://www.snipershide.com/shooting...copes/184755-official-msr-reticle-thread.html if you haven't already read through it
take the scope out and just start glassing item's at know distances and size of objects,
and take notes of what you are seeing in relation to the reticle such as how many tenths of mills
items are and at what distance they are . also if you can get next to someone shooting you can put the milling L
on the target and get used to seeing impacts and make very accurate corrections,then move over to the center of the X hairs
and .2 and .3 distances will start to come to you without using the L on the left side.and this will help you with your wind holds
and spotting your own corrections. and make a copy of the reticle and label the sub tensions for quick field use.
before you know it it will a be second nature, and you'll be making ukd hits and corrections with ease(your shooting partner will love you).

ill check it all out. I havent had time to look through the scope much yet. So no i have sat down with it.
I discussed it breifly with lowlight. He may make a good detailed video on it for youtube in the future here since I brought it ro his attention because there is no good video for the msr yet. Just the 1 thats linked on the msr thread... but it doesnt explain anything very well.

Please take no offense to this advice, it was given to me a couple years ago and held true in my case. "Son, what you need is more glass time and less ass time and that includes sitting on it and chasing after it."
