moa vs mils, the forbidden thread

In a more serious line of thought. Depending on the situation, one is better than the other. (And vice versa).

In bench rest, where the smallest of measurements are necessary to get exactly on targert, the one tenths click of the MOA is much finer than the MIL clicks. Advantage MOA

In Precision Rifle, either will work equally well, except, MIL is the standard that virtually everyone uses, so that one advantage, being able to discuss distances and scope settings, in an apple to apple manner gives MIL the advantage.

In hunting, I use MOA but I could use MIL, As getting a clean kill is more important than bragging rights, I limit the distance of my shots, to virtual point blank range (250 yards with a fast .25-06 round). So, after rifle is sighted at 200 yards, that’s it for me, I leave the scope alone.
