A common adjustment value in firearm sights is 1 cm at 100 meters which equals 10 mm / 100 m = 1 / 10 mrad. The true definition of a milliradian is based on a unit circle with a radius of one and an arc divided into 1,000 mrad per radian, hence 2,000 π or approximately 6,283.185 milliradians in one turn , and rifle scope ...
