CALCULATING HOLDS FOR WIND AND MOVING TARGETS Your horizontal mil dots provide a precise way of holding for crosswinds and target movement. Just look in your cartridge's wind drift and moving target tables to determine the exact holds for different distances. The accompanying table lists one-mil widths from 100 to 600 yards, so you can calculate how many mils to hold right or left when firing in a crosswind, or engaging a moving target. MIL WIDTH FOR WIND AND MOVING TARGET LEADS Distance 100 Yards 200 Yards 300 Yards 400 Yards 500 Yards 600 Yards One Mil At This Distance (Inches 3.6" (0.1 Yard 7.2" (0.2 Yard 10.8" (0.3 Yard 14.4" (0.4 Yard 18.0" (0.5 Yard 21.6" (0.6 Yard) One mil is the distance between centers of dots. It's easy to measure in half-mils or even quarter-mils but with practice you can measure tenths of a mil. 10
