[QUOTE="User4302021, post: 1940995, member: 105322"] I read the article, the error he makes is in the setup for the question. He gives the target measurement in inches rather than mils. The spotter likewise gives a correction in inches...another mistake. (You gonna tell me that the spotter has eyeballs calibrated well enough to count inches at 600 yards?). Once you have that gone that far down that particular rabbit hole, of course the only good answer is moa. Measure the target in the reticle to get it's width in mils before you shoot, or train your spotter to give corrections in fractional target relation (e.g. 1/2 target high...or 1/4 target behind)...or use a spotting scope with a mil reticle. Edit to add: For every single MOA question...there is a MIL answer. The catch is that you have to learn to stop commingling the two. That is a training issue. [/QUOTE]
