    Rifle Scopes MOA convert to MIL NSX?

    Picked up a NSX for my dad a few months ago in a trade. He isnt as picky as me about the Mil/Mil thing but I noticed on CS gunworks website they sell MIL knobs. Can they be converted by simply changing the knobs out? I wouldnt mind setting it up Mil/Mil if thats possible.

    Rifle Scopes Moa to Mil conversion

    Ok guys I need some enlightment. I want to convert Moa to mil. I know to convert Moa to Mils you divide the Moa by 3.438. My question is If a mil subtends 3.6 inches at 100 yds why the 3.438 number instead of dividing by 3.6?

    Rifle Scopes MOA / MOA vs Mil / Mil

    What is better or more intuitive. I know the obvious advantage of the Mil / Mil setup is the range finding reticle. Is it tough to range using an MOA reticle. I see the move is to Mil / Mil but the MOA is more intuitive for me to translate over various ranges. Any advice?
