Hello all,
This is my first post, and, admittedly, I am a complete novice. I live in Western Colorado, and I am looking to get into to long range shooting. By way of background, I've been a wing shooter and deer hunter my entire life.
In researching the subject, I'm realizing I have a lot of questions that I can't get definitive answers to. My first question is if you are a complete novice that hopes to practice a lot and work hard, what type of aiming methodology would it be best to start on if you hope to master it? In other words, MOA or Mil-Dot?
I know it is a subjective question, but, before I invest in a rifle and optics, I thought it would be best to have a plan of attack on how to train to and this seems like something I should figure out before proceeding to acquire dedicated equipment.
If it helps, I have a strong math background, and I have read up on both methodologies to a limited degree, so neither is intimidating, although I know what I really need is a lot of practice.
Thanks for your help.
