    When a mildot exactly measures 36" at 1000 ( the height of a 6' tall man would cover 2 mildots ) or 3.6" at 100 yards @ 10X or more accurately 3.44 Minutes Of Angle then it is a true mildot. All this has been handed down from the US military.

    Ahem.....milliradians as a measure of angle existed long before the US.
