[QUOTE="benson821, post: 500277, member: 27587"] My father currently has a Super Sniper 10x42 on his AR15 (scope is mil/moa), I use my ballistic program and see what the drop is at the range, either look at the inches drop or the moa drop and dial one of those into the scope. [B]From what I am understanding about mil/mil scopes they work basically the same as mil/moa, but with mil/mil if the dope you put into the rifle is off you can use the reticle to either compensate for the shot being off or you can dial the new dope in using the reticle to measure. Is that basically it? (it basically allows for a more precise follow up shot if your first one doesn't connect)[/B] [B]With the Super Sniper I also got a Mildot Master which uses the reticle for range measuring, is that what you use with a mil/mil scope or can you just make a chart that shows drop at differnt ranges and put your adjustment into mils?[/B] I currently use the iSnipe app from my ipod as my ballistic software for my long range shooting and figuring out drop and how much elevation and windage to eithe dial in or hold over. Does it really matter if i get a mil/moa scope or a mil/mil scope if i just use the software to tell me my bullet drop?? or will one of the scopes just make it easier? if so explain. [/QUOTE]
