What about the metric system and liters ! LOL !

Very funny but I like your analogy. I did get a good laugh tho.

Graham, All I can do is LOL! Good luck and happy shooting.

Corey4 I have been trying to say the same thing but they just don't seem to under stand. Like I said before I was trained in moa but when I started using mils a huge light went on in my head telling me how easy this is. I predict in the not to distant future you will not see an moa scope in the...

That's my point , you would have to do a conversion to mils. if your using a mil scope with mil reticle you can make a perfect adjustment because 1 mil is broken down into 10 units of measure. 1 moa is usually broken down into 1/4 units of measure. In mils you can make adjustments in 10th and in...

You are correct that 1 moa is a smaller angular measurement than 1 mil but the mil is broken down into 10 units and an moa is broken down into 4 units ( if it's 1/4 inch per click ) of measure. If you take 3.4 and divide it by 10 you should come up with .34 ( I think ) which is very close to 1/4...

I guess my explanation wasn't very good. Both systems work well but here's a little different way to look at it. A 308 180 grain bullet at 2600 FPS needs 8.9 moa adjustment to be on target at 400 yards, as far as I know moa scopes can't make an 8.9 adjustment. They can come close but at 1000...

MOA is 1/60 of an angle or 1,047 inches at a hundred yards. At five or six hundred yards 1.047 won't have much of a difference, but at a thousand yards the same 1.047 will have a much bigger difference. There will be much more math involved in figuring out how to adjust your moa scope to 1.047...

I would respectfully disagree with what others have said here. Mills are much more capable of a higher accuracy potential than MOA adjustments. MOA adjustments will adjust at 1/4 or 1/2 inch measurements in one moa, whereas mills are divides into 10 adjustments in one mill so it's a more precise...

Why not a 6.5 Swedish, I built one for my daughter this year and she loves it. No recoil to speak of and highly accurate, good for hunting everything except big bears, bullets have high ballistic coefficient and good sectional density. I like her rifle so much I think I will build one for me.

Sorry no images, I have a hard enough time operating the computer.

I like the SWFA super sniper scopes, they are being used on 50's in the middle east so they are battle tested and passed the U.S. military trials when the navy was looking for a new scope for their special operators. If I were you I would get a fix power single focal plane with a 30 MM tube...

I have been shooting the 3006 for over 15 years for long range work. I have two heavy barrel 3006 rifles that will keep five rounds at 3/8 inch at 100 meters. My problem is neither will shoot 190 or 178 grain match bullets worth the damn. Here's the rest of the story.... If I use my hand load...

One thing I like about the savage is the firing pin travel, bolt lift tension, and firing pin spring tension are all adjustable. I'm not sure but I don't think the 700 has that.

I would like to make a comment, if it shoots good save the barrel and use the money for a good optic. If funds are limited maybe look at the SWFA super sniper 10X. It is being used on 50"s in the middle east so it's battle tested, it also passed the U.S. military trials when the navy was looking...
