What is the best size targets to set up on my practice range?....... 2.0/2.5/3.0 moa ..... square or round?

I will be going from 300 to 800y in 100y increments, I would like to keep them all the same moa.
 
Most popular is to go with 2 MOA.
May want one that is larger than that for the longest distance if you plan to shoot/practice in areas with a lot of wind, or want to stretch past 800 once in a while.
 
my main practice area is set up from 100 to 1085....i have 1 and 2moa targets i can set up at 100yd-ish increments out to 925...the 1085 is a 17"x17"x3/8" piece of mild steel and is hard to get to/hard to see with the naked eye so it gets left out.

i also have 2 other spots using the same targets....one turns the 1085 into a 1225 and another that turns the 925 into a 1760 and the 1085 into a 1920...when using the 2 alternate spots the targets get small...at the longest spot most of the targets become less than a minute.

my thoughts are if you can hit a 10" plate at 925yds consistently in conditions then 2-3moa plates should be easy money...all my targets are double hangers...hung from 22" pieces of converter belt...the hangers are 2"x2" angle and slip on to T-posts...the T-posts stay out where i shoot.
