[QUOTE="devildoc, post: 182628, member: 5615"] Minute Of Angle is a measurement of angle, corresponding to 1/60 of a degree. An actual minute of angle is around 1.047 inches at 100yds, but in common usage the "shooter's MOA" is simplified to the range in yards divided by 100 giving the approximate size of a minute of angle at that range (100yds/100=1", 750yds/100=7.5"). For an actual precise measurement of MOA you have to use radians and some trigonometry which for most peoples purposes is not needed. But I'm sure someone here can quote the actual formula if you want. [/QUOTE]
