[QUOTE="sscoyote, post: 597668, member: 1133"] According to pg. 55 of the '10 Nikon catalog the mil. in that optic is designed to mil. correctly at 12x (3.6 IPHY, and the dots are .2 mil) (as all Nikon MD's are) and at 14 it will be 3.12 IPHY. At 12x in that optic there should be gold lettering and a small hashmark above the 12 designation with the "mil" letters next to it. Most companies are currently using the US Army round dot system at .2 mil. and 3.6 IPHY center of dot to center of next dot. The USMC version was 3.6 IPHY between like spots on oblong dots and each dot was .25 mil. designed to break the spacing down into 1/8th's (instead of tenths for the round dots). The round dot system is much easier to apply mathematically and just a bit more accurate. [/QUOTE]
