Ah…is it not 228/(3.6*10)?What is the formula to convert 228 inches of drop at 1000 yards to Milliradians?
Did you make the shot? I assume so since you were looking for MILs and didn't trust 22.8 MOA . I hate how easy it is to convert inches to MOA but the cool kids use MIL so I guess I willWhat is the formula to convert 228 inches of drop at 1000 yards to Milliradians?
Wouldn't it be 21.8 moa ....Did you make the shot? I assume so since you were looking for MILs and didn't trust 22.8 MOA . I hate how easy it is to convert inches to MOA but the cool kids use MIL so I guess I will
In my head I just use 1" per 100y but it's probably slightly more than that. If I was wrong, thanks you convinced me to never shoot MOA again because I couldn't get a simple 1000y conversion done in my head!!!Wouldn't it be 21.8 moa ....
It's a 10" difference being off a full minute, and enough to miss depending on the target
Yea "shooters" moa or inches per hundred is a common short hand.In my head I just use 1" per 100y but it's probably slightly more than that. If I was wrong, thanks you convinced me to never shoot MOA again because I couldn't get a simple 1000y conversion done in my head!!!
I am now a MIL fanatic, thank you!!Yea "shooters" moa or inches per hundred is a common short hand.
About like using 3.5" instead of 3.6 for MIL conversion
Not trying to talk you our of anything, but if you are trying to convert numbers to true all your data then the 1 vs 1.047 or 3.6 vs 3.5 start to matter depending on how close you are trying to get your data
.... can't decide if you think I'm trying to sell you on mils .... or trying to goat me into screwing with you about it .... hard to read inflection on the internet....I am now a MIL fanatic, thank you!!
if you need operational 'redundancy', just carry spare battery/kestrel/iphone etc.
I've chosen to shoot MILs even though MOA kinda makes more sense to me on the fly for estimation (but, as you pointed out even those estimates can be off by a bit at extended ranges). I went with MILs because it seems to be common among the guys I've learned from and I do like dialing in 0.1's instead of 0.25's..... can't decide if you think I'm trying to sell you on mils .... or trying to goat me into screwing with you about it .... hard to read inflection on the internet....
Anyway there is always error to be had in the rounding it's just how much everyone is comfortable with
Of course, everyone can afford an extra iPhone, kestrel, etc.
Yea about the same for meI've chosen to shoot MILs even though MOA kinda makes more sense to me on the fly for estimation (but, as you pointed out even those estimates can be off by a bit at extended ranges). I went with MILs because it seems to be common among the guys I've learned from and I do like dialing in 0.1's instead of 0.25's.
All kidding aside, I really do appreciate you checking me on that because I've not run the number to see how much that rounding is off at 1k. And I'm just coping with having all MIL optics when MOA makes more sense to me intuitively haha
Get a databook as a backup. Have dope cards. People were doing this long before any of these electrical devices ever existed.EMP?
Post #2 and #3 have the answer as generally known.What is the formula to convert 228 inches of drop at 1000 yards to Milliradians?
