A milling bottom hole assembly (BHA) for use in cutting a full gauge window in a wellbore casing wall, the resultant length of the window being greater than or equal to the whipstock ramp length. A milling BHA is described which includes two shaft portions, a window mill and two bearing mills. The design, which involves strategically placed bearing mills, allows the milling BHA to stay on the whipstock ramp for the entire casing window milling operation and, thereafter, to optimally rapidly build angle and move laterally away from the whipstock and casing, creating a significantly long window which allows for easy passage of directional drilling BHAs through the milled window.
