My Stiener Binos have good Mil-Dots for estimating long ranges that I trust, but the cheaper rifle scope has dots that are too small and spaced too far apart to really be used to estimate a real short distance, I think. The small variation in head and shoulder widths at such short ranges makes using the dots very error prone. I put a 6" wide piece of paper up at 100' and counted the dots, but in practice using the dots range could be off like 30% (70' shot = ouchie) The scope came with a table that was only expressed in yards and I somehow doubt the reliabily of that dope.
