Understanding Milliradians (MRAD)
What is a Milliradian?
A milliradian (MRAD) is a precise angular measurement equal to 1/1000th of a radian. It's widely used in shooting, surveying, and military applications for its practical advantages in range estimation and adjustment calculations.
Quick Facts
- 1 MRAD = 0.0573 degrees
- 1 MRAD = 3.438 MOA (Minutes of Angle)
- There are approximately 6,283 MRAD in a full circle
Practical Applications
Milliradians are particularly useful in long-range shooting and surveying because they provide a convenient relationship between angular measurement and linear distance at range. One MRAD equals 1 meter at 1000 meters, making range estimation and adjustment calculations intuitive.
