This is a simple example on how to estimate distance using a scope of binoculars that comes with a mil-dot function. You can us metric or imperial measurements but the trick to have a reference height of an item in the sights.

This formula is commonly referred to as "The WORM Rule".(MIL SPEAK) 1 MIL = 1 Meter at 1000 meters.
1 Mil = .91 yd at 1000 meters.
Using the metric system is an easier formula to use when judging distance using this method.
It is not necessarily easier in metric terms. The beauty of the mil scale is that it works with any unit of measurement.
1 Mil = 1 yard at 1000 yards 1 Mil = .914 meter at 1000 yards or 1 Mil = 1 meter at 1000 meters 1 Mil = 1.09 yards at 1000 meters or 1 Mil = 1 foot at 1000 feet 1 Mil = 0.3048 meter at 1000 feet or in other words the real beauty is that, 1 Mil = 1 unit of measurement at 1000 units of measurement. 10 Mil = 1 unit of measurement at 100 units of measurement
