[QUOTE="mattj, post: 200863, member: 8758"] Usually it's one number per MOA --- if you know what your click values are, you should be able to verify this on the scope. For example, if you know your scope has 1/4 MOA clicks, then it should take 4 clicks to go from the hash marked '0' to the hash marked '1' on your turret. Note that the 0-14 markings are only correct on the first turret rotation -- so if you had to do 16 MOA, then you'd have to do a complete rotation of the turret, and then 8 more clicks (so you would end up on the hash marked '2', but you'd be adjusted for 16 MOA of elevation). Just make sure you don't lost track of what rotation your turret is on. Edit: Oh yeah, what Dick said -- back around to zero again would probably be 15 MOA, so if you dialed around to 16 MOA, you'd probably end up on '1'. But yeah, depends on your scope. [/QUOTE]
