I uploaded the equations that pretty much have all the different mil/moa/s-moa (s moa = shooters moa i.e. 1 inch at 100 yards) Range Equations that you might need for many different combinations of Reticles, Height of Target Units and Distance to Target Units.
For example, you have an "moa" reticle, and you measure the height in "inches", but because you're in the military, you need the range in meters. What Formula would you use? You should be able to find a Formula that works for your scope and the units you want. Height of Target (yards) x 1000 = Distance to Target (yards)
mils Height of Target (inches) x 27.78 = Distance to Target (yards) mils Height of Target (inches) x 25.4 = Distance to Target (meters) mils Height of Target (meters) x 1000 = Distance to Target (meters) mils Height of Target (cm) x 10 = Distance to Target (meters) mils Height of Target (inches) x 95.5 = Distance to Target (yards) moa Height of Target (inches) x 87.32 = Distance to Target (meters) moa Height of Target (meters) x 3437.75 = Distance to Target (meters) moa Height of Target (cm) x 34.37 = Distance to Target (meters) moa Height of Target (inches) x 100 = Distance to Target (yards) s- moa Height of Target (inches) x 91.44 = Distance to Target (meters) s- moa Height of Target (meters) x 3600 = Distance to Target (meters)

I just use a card with a small tie rap loosely holding it and the ballistics card for the round i'm using if you know the height, read the range card, then then load ballistics for ups and check you drift, once your set up follow directions at the bottom of this post.

That's what these equations are for. Pick your reticle. Pick your unit that you want to use for the Height of the Target. Pick what distance you like to use. Than make a chart for ease of use like you did. Good job.
