[QUOTE="LouBoyd, post: 554573, member: 9253"] 1 MOA is not 1 inch at 100 yards. It is 1.047 inches. That's a 4.7% error. In Edd's calculation above the answer is not .75 MOA It should be .716 MOA. Does that matter to your shooting? Only you can decide that. Actually the number is not 1.047 but that has less than a 0.02% error. The correct number is irrational and cannot be written as an exact decimal number. Would you use 3 for PI instead of 3.14 or 3.1416 or 3.14159? [/QUOTE]
