    Required MOA for 1000 yds

    First post, first stupid question. What is the required MOA to be effective at 1000 yards for a 308/18in. I'm assuming <1MOA would be within a 10 inch radius @ 1000 yards in ideal conditions..? Can I assume that anything less than 0.8MOA is considered good, or would that be excellent..? And...

    Rifle Scopes New Leupold MOA reticle

    I sent my older 2001? (can't remember) 4.5-14x50 Leupold Vari X iii Long Range Tactical in for a new reticle. They said the MOA reticle for SFP 14x was ready. I like it. Cost me around $150 and they cleaned and checked out my scope. I don't post much, but learn a lot. This may be old...

    Mils vs MOA the Definitive Reason "Why"

    Both Mils and MOA are an Angle. They were intended to operate as angles and while all angles have linear equivalents, when it comes to shooting there is no reason to use the linear value. We have moved beyond needing to figure the straight line distance. They were always meant to work as an...

    Rifle Scopes MOA and/or MIL

    I am probably over thinking this, but I need to ask. Since both MOA and MIL scaled scopes are ranged estimated or scaled based on a specific magnification that is usually marked on the scope, is it possible to actually change the scaled magnification measurements from one to the other simply by...

    Rifle Scopes Mil Reticle, MOA dial?

    I'm new to this board, learning about marksmanship and trying to soak up as much info as I can... The entire MOA and Mil Dot math required zero a rifle has been almost voodoo to me, (figuring out distance conversions off target to clicks) until I ran across Lowlight's article on using a...

    What is a half MOA rifle?

    If someone says they have a half MOA Rifle, does that mean all their groups are sub .500" at 100 yards, when using the correct ammo? Or does that mean the rifle shoots 1/2 MOA on a good day? -Chris

    Opinions on Weatherby's Vanguard Sub MOA

    I wondered how many people have also bought one, specifically in .308. I have yet to shoot mine but I have heard the triggers suck, and people recommend a Timney FGR for them. I figured folks here would have strong opinions, but educated ones. So any recommendations on ammo or other upgrades, as...

    I purchased a US Optics Remington 700 Short Action Picatinny Style Base 20 MOA (#992611) for my Rem 700P. I hand tightened the base screws and found that the bolt would not budge. The 4 screws all measured slightly different lengths, so I tried putting the longest screw in the rear base screw...

    20 moa base issues ?

    I am relatively new here so if this topic has been addressed before I apologize for bringing it up again. What is the effect of using a 20-m.o.a. base on a.22 cal rimfire at the closer ranges? Can you still get a zero at 25 and 50 yards using for instance a Weaver T-36?

    Rifle Scopes 20 moa base for a mossberg atr 100?

    I am extremely new to tactical shooting so excuse my probably very ignorant question but I don't know where else to look. I am wondering if there is any 20 moa base that will fit on a mossberg atr 100? Yes I know that putting a 20 moa base on a mossberg atr 100 seems somewhat pointless as it's...
