Question 1

Will this teach a novice how to use a mil-dot scope?

Accepted Answer

Sort of.

The kit contains a book that WILL help you understand how to use a mil-dot scope, but the card itself is a slide rule/analog computer that assists you in rapidly doing the math involved with using said mil-dot optic.

I would recommend grabbing this, watching a video or two on YouTube, and keeping the book as a reference.

Question 2

Will this work okay with a vortex crossfire ii 6-18x44 scope using their bdc reticle?

Accepted Answer

The MilDot master only works with a scope using Mildot display. If the Vortex uses MOA, the mildot is ineffective. Consider that 1 MOA at 100 yes is 1.05 inches. At 200yds it's 2.1in. At 300 it is 4.15 etc.  So, take a hard look at your reticle and then consider. If you don't see the dots, it's likely MOA.  As a MilDot estimator with a MilDot scope, the tool works FANTASTIC. I've estimated 880 yd shots very accurately.

Question 3

what material is the slide made out of? Cardboard? Plastic?

Accepted Answer

Its plastic coated  100% and pretty durable it can be used in the rain.

Question 4

Will this work with a bdc type retical?

Accepted Answer

Depends which model lens you are using, some are pre set for 50 yard differences 100 yard ect. So yea with some time (pending your math skills) yea it can be done. But this system is better used MOA, MIL standards. However keeping in mind your scope is only accurate set to a certain load. With that said I have a BDC system on my AR with adjustable objective set to my ONE load I built for my gun and yes can (but don't ) use my mil master. All my other guns including my 30-30 MIL/MOA. But given some time you will find a way for quick conversions using this system.
