I play the recon class exclusively because I like going for cross the map kills and this would make it easier. On the 40x scope what distance does each tick mark represent?
I honestly think you should be asking r/guns this instead.
Go back to cod
Depends on the gun’s bullet (or muzzle I can’t remember which) velocity. A good website to check this is symthic.com I believe
They are different per weapon but it should be used to adjust for bullet drop. 200 yard for first mil dot 300 for 2nd and so one. Like I said though each gun has a different bullet velocity which changes the distance it starts to drop. Once you get use to the weapon and the drop of the bullet it will make it somewhat easier to use.
Go back to your mom’s basement after you eat the dinner she made for you when you got home from middle school, ugly kid.
They are the zero distances. Instead of aiming high you look at your range finder. Let’s say it’s 200 yds out. Then you cycle through your zeroes with the up arrow until “200” pops into the scope. Now if you put the reticle on an enemy 200 yds out you can get a head shot by aiming straight instead of compensating.
(Realistically) each Mil Dot/Chevron is equal to 100 meters in drop. On the Mil Dot scopes it starts off as the predetermined zeroing of the rifle. Each dot below the crosshair is 100 meters. Now the game does not portray this accurately. Even the range finder on the PSO scopes are just for show and hold no actual purpose. Say your rifle is zeroed in at 300 meters, your target is 450 meters away. You would go down by 1 and half mil dots. This would equal to 450 on the scope.
Pretty late man, but this should tell you everything you wanna know
