I appreciate his views on traveling light and not needing a full giant ghillie suit. Parse it down to the necessities.. Its easy to over-kit. Wheb humans see "human" they are usually picking up the head/shoulder shape, faces, and bare skin. End note: This is gonna be a fantastic series. Thanks guys.
Tosh mentioned that he uses an MOA Range Estimation formula because it's easier for him, because he thinks in inches. As an America, I also think in inches when I'm estimating the size of objects, but all my rifles use Mils. All I need to do is to change the Constant and the formula gives me the range in meters, which closely correlates to mil adjustments. FORMULA: Size of the Target in Inches multiplied by A Constant of 25.4 = range to target in meters
That’s not the formula. You’re missing a critical step. You need to “mil” the target aka use your scope, binos, monocular etc. to see the size of the target in mils. Then you take their size in inches X 25.4 (for meters) or 27.78 (for yards) / size in mils = target distance. Example: A target with a known height of 68” appears as 4.5 mils in height on your scope (68in x 25.4) / 4.5mils = 383.82 meters
Why wouldn't you just put the target height in yards and use the mil formula. You'd get distance to target in yards. There's no real drawback to that if you're familiar with the imperial system. Also, that's not a working formula.

I would leave the magazine in the rifle to block the action for sand and sticks and fully loaded and no rounds in the chamber . Well done on your tips and video and thanks for your time 👍🏻
My favorite quick rule of thumb is 500/mils the shoulders fit in the reticle = distance to target in yards. So if someones shoulders(roughly 18") fit in 1/2 mil in my scope, that dummy is about 1000 yards away. 500/.5 = 1000. 27.7 x 18" =500 is where that number comes from. Thank you for the great video. Total respect for you fellow sailors. Watched you guys train in Coronado while they were trying to drown me in the scuba pool.
Can you clarify please? Your comment and math is incomplete you just plugged in numbers and equations with specifying just what exactly it is you’re talking about lol
I use the Mildot Master, so much easier if my range finder isn't working. The internal card can be flipped to either yards or meters, so I use a Mil-radian radical. If you know the target size, mild it. Then Take the target in inches and slide rule down to the Mildot size, and the target range will tell you in yards or flip the card, meters.
A picture, you know, is better then, you know.... Lol.. I think what the good sir was for is ... A picture is worth a thousand words... God Bless you and thank you for sharing your knowledge with us average Joes
Tosh, what's your opinion on the Crye Precision Combat Assault Ghillie? I know you covered silly ghillies, but do you have any experience with that specific piece? I figure buy once cry once, and my experience with ghillie is very limited. It seems like it would be ideal for my purposes, but of course research is important with any piece of kit.
Great video. Just one thing that doesn’t really matter but I’ll say it anyway. Mils aren’t metric. It is a very common misconception. A mil. is a mil. regardless which system you use to measure. If you use mils. you can switch back and forth between metric and imperial. Also a mil can be used as a drop comp for multiple systems. Using MOA is harder to switch from one weapon to another, that’s why they make BDC.
@@johndaniels5226 so is a football field metric? Just be as something is divisible by 10 doesn’t make it part of the metric system. It’s based in a radium. And then divided into 1000ths
@@Heywoodthepeckerwood a football field is not metric because yards is a base 3 system, while feet are a base 12 system. All things metric are base 10 meaning 10 to the power of whatever gives you your measurements. A radian to the power of -3 gives you a milliradian which exactly equals a meter to the power of -2 (centimeter) at a range of 100 meters from the center of the circle. This is the power of the metric system.
@@tacticalhyvecadre1049 Hello, thanks for a great vid with another humble expert. Those looked like Propper pants possibly. Didn't see a gear list in the description though that could be helpful.

Welcome!
The no.1 mistake citizens make is carrying too much stuff that's too heavy.
Excellent, no nonsense, succinct, to the point in plain spoken language. 👏🇺🇸

What a teacher though! So calm and cooperative. Thank you Tosh.
Love all the sniper videos you fellas did great job keep it up.
More to come!

Curious what you did to avoid thermal detection.

Would love to see modern day solutions to FLIR, especially airborne FLIR on drones.
Also at you assigned location you want to make a range card for
targets at your location. 👍😊🇺🇸
Nice to see an older gentleman understand the weaknesses of batteries/battery tech.
Gotta love the picatiny rail on the hookstrap! cheers
Thank you for breaking this down simply.
Glad it was helpful!
Who makes that sling that is kind of like a backpack? That is so cool! Thanks and cheers for the info!

Another outstanding video Myles!!!!! Can you post a gear list on the Inner Circle page, please.
Fieldcraft Mastery for certain ..

lol red Speedo + hat, I wish I could observe that
@24:21 omfg my parents have that sheer somewhere lol
Hi tosh let me know if you have any extra gloves I'm missing my right hand... good to see you still passing on the knowledge 👍
Hahaha... just saw this
The chest rig he was holding looks like an lbt 1961
Good Morning Sir, can you tell something about your Rhodesian NSW Type? I'm looking for it but didn't find
Best regards
We need more videos where we watch people trying to find stalkers.
Points at bulpup 300 win mag sniper. Nothing fancy except the size.
great video. keep up the good video's.

I don't have experience with the cry ghillie. See my video on camo. I think found good solution any suit you use.
Who makes that rifle strap?
I love the content keep it up 👍
Thanks, will do!
Writing a film script about an SAS sniper right now, thanks for this excellent research 👍
Great video.

Mils is absolutely metric. It’s a base-10 system like everything else that is part of the metric system.

Is the ghillie shawl something he made? Or bought and then added the jute?
Shawl was purchased jute was added later. Thx for posting

Hey JS, it was issued. tactical tailor
What is that armband he is using that holds ammo and dope?
What model is the 18” bull-pup bolt action?
Desert Tactical
SRS A2
Anybody know what the pack was at @ 5.02?
Disappointing that a professional still thinks MOA/MIL are metric/imperial dependant.
Very
very useful video we appreciate it. A couple of words about ProApto Ghillies should be needed :)
“We are in California “
Why?
What rifle is that?
The rifle would be a Desert tech.
One of the beauties in this rifle is that its a multi caliber. Hope this helps some. Check em out.
Where did Tosh get or have that rifle harness made? Just curious.
IT is pretty common, just look up rifle two shoulder sling
Sorry about the delay. It's a veri vellendi.
No offense to Tosh, but a lot of his info is pretty outdated in regards to system. His setup is more civilian hunter than modern Mil-spec.
