Hi shuanharkin,
An mrad is a mathematical abbreviation for milliradian. Mil is the abbreviation for mil as in mil-dot or milli. So an mrad is equal to a mil.

Because the milliradian,mil-dot or mrad) is unitless system it must be converted into units of measure for us to use and understand as shooters. Here are two links to help you. http://www.eabco.com/Reports/MildotRep01.htm

You can also Google milliradian or mil dot ranging.

The mrad is equal to 1 meter at 1000 meters or 36 inches at 1000 yards. Therefore an mrad is equal to 10 centimeters at 100 meters or 3.6 inches at 100 yards. If your scope is set to 10 clicks per mrad: then 1 click is equal to 1 centimeter at 100 meters. In English units a scope set to 4 clicks per mrad: then 1 click is equals to .9 inches,approximately 1 inch or 1MOA) at 100 yards.

I don’t understand the 13 mrad, where the 130mc or the .1 mrad click comes from but I hope this helps.

If you Sierra v6 is set to metric,SI) then yes 1 mrad equals 1 mil. So 13 mrads are equal to an elevation of 13 mils or 130cm or 130 clicks at 100 meters.
