[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 51633, member: 7"] Hi Dave... Your figures: 200 yards = 4 times the difficulty 300 yards = 9 times more difficult 400 yards = 16 times more difficult 500 yards = 25 times 600 yards = 36 times 700 yards = 49 times 800 yards = 64 times 900 yards = 81 times 1000 yards = 100 times more difficult ... are dead on. Some might have a hard time seeing it, but if you think of a square piece of paper that is 10" on each side, it represents a target that is 100 square inches... but also 100 (rounding the 1.047") square "MOA's". That target at 200yds is only 25 square MOA's, at 500yds = 4 SQ/MOA's, and at 1000yds = 1 SQ/MOA!... so it is 100 times as hard to hit at 1000yds. CatShooter. [/QUOTE]
