How many total mils are available on the M252 Mount Traverse Bar?

The total number of mils available on the M252 Mount Traverse Bar is 200 mils. This means that the mount allows for a range of movement sufficient for targeting and adjusting fire effectively during operations. The 200 mils measurement refers to the angular range of the traverse bar, indicating how much the mount can be adjusted horizontally to align the mortar accurately towards the target. This feature is crucial for achieving precision in mortaring, as it translates to the ability to cover a larger area without needing to reposition the entire mortar system. Accurate understanding of this measurement helps operators plan and execute their missions more effectively.
