I did start using this method along time ago but ended up getting a cheap range finder off AliExpress

How many ppl are using their mildot scopes for ranging? It seems to me that everyone is going for range finders these days.
Is range finding off a scope a thing of the past for most?
Its a simple formula 10x target size รท by mildots.
Animal sizes can be found all over the Web.
This is mildot not moa
Espially useful on farms if you work out post, batten, pigtail and warratah size (waratah are wider on hole side than other size) it vertually turns the farm into measurable distances for shooting.
Below is starling at 21cm high and my in pocket hare ranges for hunting.
You do need to be able to rest gun at longer distances for measuring.
Are range finders that much more convenient for this propose?
