Say the target above is 10" high        
and there's about 7 mils covering        
it. That makes the target right at        
40 yards away.
10/36*1000/7.        
Or inches / 36 = yards.        
Yards * 1000 / mils = range.        
The same target above now has
just about 3 mils covering it.
That makes the target right at
93 yards away.
10/36*1000/3.
Or inches / 36 = yards.
Yards * 1000 / mils = range.
