Are You A MOA Shooter?
I have a 1/8 rifle scope with mildot on it and according to my ballistic chart it tells me to hold 48.7 for a 500 yds target (is that approx. 69 clicks which is 8 clicks is 1 in.@ 100 yds then 8 clicks is 5 in.@ 500 yds) whereas MOA hold is only 9.3 SO is there any formula to convert inches into MOA or i need to buy a scope with MOA hold reticle and is Mildot master calculator can solve all this type of problems.Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Mildots are not the same thing as Minutes of Angle (M.O.A.).
An m.o.a. is the measurement of an angle. It is 1/60th of a degree. There are 360 degrees in a circle.
Often people express it as One Inch at 100 yards. What they mean is that the one m.o.a. could create a triangle (or a cone) whose sides are 100 yards long and whose base measures approximately 1 inch wide (or in diameter). Actually it measures 1.047197580733 inches.

I think you meant to say that your scope uses elevation and windage turrets designed to change the point of impact by 1/8 of an inch at 100 yards. So it would take 8 clicks of turret movement to change the scope settings by 1 m.o.a.
If you needed to compensate for 48.7 inches of bullet-drop during a 500 yard trajectory...
1"@100yards = 5"@500yards
48.7"bullet drop divided by 5" = approximately 9.74 m.o.a elevation adjustment.
9.74 multiplied by 8 = 77.92 clicks which is rounded up or down to be 78 clicks or 77 clicks (since you can't move the scope elevation turret less than one whole click).
You don't need a mil-Dot Scope. But you're welcome to want one.
You don't need a Mil-dot Master calculator. But you're welcome to purchase one.
You'll probably want a calculator of some kind, because doing the math on paper takes longer.
You'll probably want a lazer rangefinder to verify distances to targets. Using mil-dot equipped scopes is effective, but involves knowing the height & width of an object in order to estimate the distance to it. A lazer rangefinder is quicker and more precise in many situations (except when weather or foliage obscure the target or scatter the lazer ranging beam).
