Mueller 4x16 Illum. Mildot 50mm scope on an AR Pic compliments of John E. Lockport, NY 4X16 TACTICALS IN STOCK.   Mueller Tactical 4-16×50mm AO Part# MT41650IGR The mil-dot reticle in Mueller’s new Tactical Series Riflescope provides an accurate and versatile system for rangefinding and calculating long range bullet trajectory with true mil-dot calculations based of the scope being set on 8×. The mil-dot reticle offers multiple aimpoints that can also be used for bullet drop or windage compensation. Mueller even utilized a glass-etched reticle, which allows the shooter to illuminate the entire center portion of the reticle for accurate shot placement, during low light conditions. Target Style Turrets Why Use a Mil-Dot Reticle? There are two basic reasons that people purchase optics with a mil-dot reticle. The first is to estimate range, and the second is the ability to accurately compensate for wind or bullet drop. This reticle is extremely versatile, and when properly used will allow the shooter to accurately engage and hit targets at ranges previously thought impossible. Dots are spaced in one mil (milliradian) increments on the crosshair. One useful way to use this reticle is by creating a chart that is based on the size of the object being targeted. By looking through the scope you can bracket the object between dots, and refer to the chart for an estimated distance to target. During normal daylight conditions the reticle has a standard black Mil Dot reticle. For low light conditions the center portion of the reticle can be illuminated Red and fine tuned with 11 brightness intensity levels.
