Rifle Scopes Mil or MOA Turrets?

[bman940]

Which do you like to use with your Mil-dot reticle.
I have seen a number of scopes with Mil-dot reticle and MOA Turret's, thoughts?

Its a trick question right?

Re: Mil or MOA Turrets?

Mil/Mil scope = Read mils in reticle, dial into scope. Done.

Mil/MOA scope = Read mils in reticle, multiply by 3.438, dial into scope. Done.

Example, you see your hit 1.4 mils left, as measured with your reticle. With Mil/Mil, you dial 1.4 mils right and your next shot is bullseye. With a Mil/MOA scope, you first have to do the math to convert it to MOA, then dial that onto your scope. If you can multiply 1.4 x 3.438 in your head fast, then you probably won't have a problem.

Whatever floats your boat. I use Mil/Mil.

Edit to add: MOA/MOA works just fine too. In a nutshell, it helps if the curtains match the carpet...so to speak.

I have both setups, my preference is Mil/Mil. On the mil turrets I will adjust them for elevation and wind correction. On the moa I will use hold over.

Awesome! I didn't think I would ever hear this in the context of angular measurements ; )

I'm a MIL/MIL fan myself, but honestly it doesn't matter... just be good with one, the other, or both!

Whatever you want, if u dont mind doing math all the time stick with what u got. Its just a tad easier with matching reticles n adjustments

MIL/MIL or MOA/MOA as long as they match it makes things easier. I prefer MIL/MIL.
