That kitten was asking for it; plus I hate kittens. We also listen to metal, don't forget about metal.and they stomp kittens
Does anyone besides Tac shooters even use mils
Rings are in inches. Ranges are in yards. 1 MOA = 1” per 100 yards. 8 clicks per MOA. It just doesn’t get any easier than that.
LOL, Unless you are using.25 or .50 on your adjustments . Then it's 4 or 2 clicks. Ram Mac beat me to it.Rings are in inches. Ranges are in yards. 1 MOA = 1” per 100 yards. 8 clicks per MOA. It just doesn’t get any easier than that.
Those of us who own scopes that have MIL Reticles and clicks that are MIL based. - I got a heck of a deal on a Sightron SVSS 10-50x and it clicks at 0.05 MIL per click (one twentieth of a MIL). I've found its not really that difficult IF one applies there self and I'm not a youngster either. (How I did it was by realizing 1 MIL at 1000 yds = 36 inches OR 3.6 inches at 100 yds - after that its just some simple math)
- And I'm not a Tac shooter, I shoot Long Range & Short Range at Paper Targets for Group & Score. -
I've found that conversion from MILS to MOA & MOA to MILS to be the ones that take the most time, but in the end its just math. - I remember "Reference" values & after that its just math. - Most of us now days have a smart-phone so that means we have a calculator along with it, and I'm sure there are a bunch of "Apps" that will do the math just by punching in numbers. -
Good Day Gent's !!
Ya don’t say!Umm, actually it depends on your scope. Some will use 4 clicks per MOA. Some are 1/4 MOA per click and some are 1/8 MOA per click.
GSPV, excellent summation. Can only add “wOW”Ya don’t say!
Of course there is that one scope that has both 1/8 and 1/5 MOA turrets....
Kittens! LMAOguys who use mils also think SD is significant and they'll "explain" at length as how 'mean' and 'average' and 'median' are used and where and why
and they say "mil'ing is more accurate than using moa because 1.047"
and they shoot first focal plane scopes, cuz TACTICAL!!
and they discount ES as meaningless
and they throw out the bad shots
and they stomp kittens
In the interests of full disclosure, that 1/5th was a fat finger and I corrected it.GSPV, excellent summation. Can only add “wOW”
@hogpatrol , we need some popping corn![]()
Way I look at is there are three kinds of people...those who are good at math and those who are not.
I think it's interesting how people will spend a lot of energy trying to discredit something that they don't understand or use.
ED3, you said that the impact was on the edge of the 10 ring.
According to you the 10 ring is 10" in diameter (1 MOA at 1000 yards)
The X is always in the center of each ring and the center of a circle is always halfway across the diameter.
Therefore the X is 5 inches from the impact, or one half MOA at 1000 yards.
That requires an adjustment of;
1/2 MOA (2 clicks if your scope used 1/4 MOA clicks).
0.1 Mil (1 click if your scope used 0.1 Mil clicks and you round off to the closest adjustment to the needed 5 inches)
So it's obvious that we both made math mistakes based on the size of the rings but my math was correct while yours wasn't.
Mil is the only way to go in a decimal system. The US targets and distances tend to be in the imperial system more suitable for MOA.MIL is super easy. It's base 10. 1=1, 10=10, 1/10th=1/10th. What's there to learn?
They like metric stuff because it’s more high speedery.Does anyone besides Tac shooters even use mils
