[QUOTE="tacsniper0888, post: 764068, member: 51520"] Yes for right now I am fielding the Bushnell elite 1500 LRF until I can afford a vectronix or the new LRF advertised and sold on here that automatically accounts for conditions. I'm also currently running a kestrel nv4000. And I'm very familiar with mils and I know if I can consistently shoot 1 moa accurately at 100 I can accurately shoot a deer at 1,000 accounting for conditions properly. A deer's vital area is comprised of a ten inch circle. A ten inch circle at 1,000 yards is a 1 moa sized target, BUT as you said if my spotter spots a miss and gives me the corrections either in holdover or dialing it it would be in mils which is on the same playing field which enable a MUCH faster follow-up shot! Also are .1mil knobs faster to dial a solution than .25moa? It look like they would be cuz there would be no counting involved. If you needed 3 mil on the gun instead of counting 30 clicks just run it to 3 steady your aim hold your breath and squeeze, BANG! Where as with moa you would have to convert then adjust. Also if the program said I need 4 moa correction just run it to 4 at 100 yards same as you would in mils BUT past a 100 everything changes. At 400 each click is 1 moa so if I ran to the number four on my dial I just put in 16 moa correction!
