New member on the Hide and want to get into long range shooting. Before purchasing my first FFP scope, I need to decide MOA or Mil. Everything I've read seems to be personal preference with military-trained guys and Europeans advocating mil and civilian Americans advocating MOA. As a civilian lifelong deer hunter, I'm very familiar with MOA, so that would be the easy choice, but I'd rather "convert" to milliradians from the outset if there are real, tangible benefits or if I'm going to have to do it eventually for some reason.
My first scope will be tier 2 (most likely a Leupold Mark5HD or a Sig Tango6), but I'd like to own a tier 1 scope eventually. Don't know if any of the tier 1 glass is offered in MOA, but if not, I'll have to make the switch to mils anyway and if so, I want to learn on that system from the start. What do you recommend?
