Rifle Scopes Super Sniper Adjustment

Re: Super Sniper Adjustment

isn't 1/4" at 100 yards the same as .25moa? I always thought it was.
 
Re: Super Sniper Adjustment

No, they are not the same. 1 MOA equals 1.047 inches at 100 yds. If you run the numbers on JBM calculations, you will see the difference. For example, to get a 175 SMK with a velocity of 2645 fps to 1000 yds, it takes 36.9 MOA, but 38.6 inches at 100 yds.

Scopes such as Nightforce designate that they are specifically .25 MOA per click, whereas most of your hunting scopes, Leupold and Zeiss as examples note adjustments as 1/4 in per click.
 
Re: Super Sniper Adjustment

I found a statement that said that they are truly .25 MOA. Can someone confirm or deny this.
 
Re: Super Sniper Adjustment

SWFA's website say 1/4 MOA for the scope that I got from them. It's the 10x42 non HD model
