Rifle Scopes Mil Vs MOA

[calebintn]

hey guys just about to buy a falcon menace ffp 4-14 scope and I'm not sure which to buy Mil scope or the MOA version.
I am new to long range shooting and will be mounting this scope to a 6.5x55 swede M38 mauser. I kinda know a little about moa and mils both but have no preferance. Any advice would help.

I like the mil idea myself I studied pretty hard a couple of years ago sounds like alot less math to do

Definately mil/mil especially if you ever intend to take a long range class (or use a good number of the ranging tools out there (not that you cant range in MOA)).

Go Mil/Mil and never look back.


I started out MOA/MOA and I wish that I had went Mil/Mil from the get go

How are you mounting that? I've got an M38 and off the top of my head cann't even think of how you'ld mount glass. And then I'm wondering how the bolt handle would do. I konw alot of WWII Era bolt guns have been sporterized with their bolts rewelded to accomodate glass. Curious to see your set up.

Re: Mil Vs MOA

original m38s were simply an updated m96. they came with a shorter barrel and a factory turned down bolt.
Mine already has a weaver scope mount, I will have to get a 20moa mount for the falcon scope though

Yeah! It has been pleasantly mild though! Too much other BS to worry about on here I guess!
