How far is one click?

In: Units of Measure [Edit categories]

Answer:

Answer

A "click" is military jargon for one click of the elevation knob on a rifle scope resulting in a 1" change on a target at 100 yards.

A "Klick" or "Klik" with a k is short for a kilometer or 1000 meters (.62 miles).

Basically it comes down to context as they both sound the same.
