I've found myself in a situation where it is possible that the next scope that is "brought into the family" will have "Mil" based adjustments instead of the MOA based adjustments that I've been using and Used to for the past 16 years.

can someone please explain, in straight forward language what a "0.1 Mil" click will mean at say 100 and 200 yards? Tried to read the Wiki article on Mils but it made my eyes water, i think it's too late at night for my brain to process that level of "math" without a tutor/friend to help.

Is this system one that would be easy to explain to a new shooter? the scope would be for my wife's new rifle and I need to be able to explain and coach her in shooting, so i need to be able to say "You're off by this much, therefore you need to adjust by X number of clicks". sort of How hard does using the Mil system for adjustments make the math?


as always thank you for your time and any info you choose to share.
