I am getting back into long range shooting, getting ready to buy new scope for my rifle and spotting scope. I am used to shooting in MOA, but I recently took a long range shooting course and after playing around and researching I have finally been able to understand the value in having a FFP scope with Mil Reticle and Mil Turrets.....
My stupidity now is if I am spotting for someone who is shooting with a Mil/Mil setup... how do you perform that function. I see shots/misses in inches/feet in my head, so when i call that in MOA it makes perfect sense to me if your shooting in MOA... If I am shooting a mil/mil setup by myself and I miss 1 mil low, I understand I can make 1 mil correction .... easy
How do you estimate misses with a spotting scope if your shooter is Mil/Mil and you suck with metric system... do i have to estimate in meters/centimeters, I would assume that buying a spotting scope that had a mil reticle could be one solution but the ones I used recently with a reticle made it hard to see trace.... Can someone please enlighten me, I am sure I am making this harder than it should be
