MOA vs Mil

[308pirate]

New guy here. This argument reminds me of my trapshooting forum. People always asking if they should use 7 1/2 or 8 shot. Lol

So fucking true............or which chokes......

Or where to hold on the house.

How do you plan to use it? A lot of F-class guys still use MOA, so either will work fine for that. But PRS is like 99% mils, so if you want to be able to easily share wind calls with your friends, mil is the only practical choice. If it's just for goofing around in the back 40, either will work fine for you.

Really, as long as you know your scope's units and clicks match and know how to quickly convert to the other units, it doesn't matter too much. A quick Multiply or Divide of 3.4377 will convert between MIL and MOA.

Saying you want an MOA Scope because you know standard units... well... an MOA at 100 Yards is not an Inch, its 1.047" So don't let THAT be your deciding factor. Both MIL and MOA have Yard formulas.

I gota admit...At least you didn't start a new thread. So there's that!

Holy shit, it just won't die!

Sorry. If there was a delete button (I am not seeing one where old posts state there is one), I would remove my post. I suppose there was no need for my 2¢ on a thread that has been inactive for a month.

Guys I know the MOA vs MIL thread gets old, but you got to consider new shooters join SH every day that are just learning the difference. With that said why in the hell this isn’t a sticky is beyond me.

Besides the fact that even the guys bitching are here for entertainment...

I have two MOA scopes - but I just bought a replacement for one of them during a Black Friday sale. Yes, it's mil

I'll be selling the one I'm replacing on Ebay.

But why?

It's easier to call holds/corrections. My group of shooters all use mil. I'm quicker dialing or holding mils than minutes.
