[QUOTE="406pat, post: 287731, member: 13575"] I'll take a crack at it. At 107 yards, 1 MOA=1.07" you have 30 9/16" or 30.5625" (Sorry, I'm an engineer by trade and prefer to work in decimals) 30.5625"/1.07"=28.5631 MOA If you dialed up 28 MOA that means you went up 112 clicks on your scope (28 MOA X 4 clicks per MOA) If you actually got 28.5631 MOA that means that each click was worth .255 MOA By this reasoning The actual MOA/click value is .005 MOA greater than advertised. If this is correct than at 1000 yards each click would give an additional .05" of elevation above the 2.5" that 1/4 MOA would be. This is also assuming that MOA means 1" at 100 yards. I know there's some other definitions out there but that's another issue. I hope someone double checks me on this. [/QUOTE]
