WTF does the reticle have to do with anything regarding math? Thank you for stating the obvious. Yes, I also use my reticle with the little mil marks you guys love so much, if I can see where the bullet hits. You are taking a topic and changing it to another topic because you don't understand the topic???
So what is 1 MOA @ 100 yds? Please enlighten me.. 1.047 inches ?? ... adds up too almost 1/2 inch less (if just using whole numbers) @ 1000 yds.. I will take that chance. 04 inches is 1 millimeter I think we are on to something here.
DIdn't know you used 1 MOA to hit 1000 yards,
You got me on that one. Thank you for making a validate point for once and why I don't shoot 308! That was more towards a quick range estimation.
).
I have no idea what point you’re trying to make, but the one point you’ve unintentionally made is that you don’t know how to spot, in either MOA or mils.
“Someone get this man a rifle!!” (John Wick II humor).MILOA; half way between 1 MIL and 1 MOA.
One MILOA would equal 1.71887 MOA or 0.58178 MIL.
Every one would use the same unit (at sea level
In this sentence:
"...the majority of this group..." refers to people, and is 1st person plural if the speaker is including himself/herself within the group. This requires a "don't"
me too. i run a .308 gas gun and it takes too many moas so i use mils.
You forgot about the part where not a single person in the thread is intelligent enough or educated to the level required to grasp his genius.
Yes. It will be single digit temperatures just north of Houston tonight. A once in 4 decade kind of weather. Rolling blackouts because of fucktards fleeing shithole places to move to Texas, on top of home grown stupid believing in unreliable green energy. Plus Obama BS putting coal fired plants out of business. So yes, cabin fever, racist, white privileged, pissed off Texan. Otherwise....all good
The high school stab was for the constant engineering stabs at me.. They can dish it but can't take it I guess. Anyway boss man, only point I was trying to make is that for me at least, it's easier to do the MOA math than it is for MIL.. that's it .. due to moa for shooting uses inches and yards vs mil using cm and meters. Not talking about using reticles, turrets, calling out MOA and converting to mils, impact corrections with reticle or sprinkling cocaine on the bullet so it won't drop as much. I do believe squirrel balls were used at some point as a reference.
No sir,
I would actually use 1.047in if I was trying to be precise in which I'm not but wouldn't you have the same issue with MIL?? You involve even more variation converting inches to mil. I just use a damn calculator like everyone else for precision shooting.
This is the best one yet.. Do a quick search of MOA and Mil math.. unless you don't know how to do that, I can show you. It's why they are call ballistic "calculators"
Your very first post talked about inches per 100 yard and corrections, which is not how you do corrections anyway. Now you are talking about ballistic calculators, which also have nothing to do with inches. You just dial mil or moa as spat out. No inches anywhere. Size only matters in ranging, and who the hell does that anyway these days. We use these things called "laser rangefinders"
You cannot convert inches to mils. One is a unit of length, the other is a unit of angular measure. Words have meaning, “conversion” means a very specific thing in science and I would expect an engineer to know this.
Here is your most recent post.....
If you were only making a point, then start a thread that makes such a statement and doesn't ask a question. Admittedly, you will still receive replies that point you toward a proper education. The big problem in this thread is that you ask for an answer, and then proceed to tell everyone why their answer is inferior to your preconceived notion of truth.
If someone could give an answer that had some type of intelligent response, then maybe we wouldn't be having this conversation. I have been waiting this entire time for someone to post something along the lines of this. But no.. everything but this. That's it.. that simple. This was the first thing I learned and I practiced it.. not very practical compared to the tools we have and I would never bust this out at a match. So if your argument is, who gives a shit, I use Mil because of whatever random shit you want to tell yourself, then that's ok by me. My first Vortex Razor was MOA because I was like, who would use Mil, that's stupid.. Then I went to a match and was like.. ok.. I get it.

IF you’re an engineer and you believe that statement...then you are a disgrace to engineers and mathematically inept.
You’re a moron and can’t see the forest for the trees
