[QUOTE="joseph, post: 446884, member: 19151"] I chose the MOA because I wanted the custom turret to be in yards so when I range with the laser range finder in yards it all matches up in the measurements and I do not have to change my thinking from MOA to Mils. Its just a personal thing. Both MOA and Mil work equally. From what I was told is that with the Mil scope the custom turret would get me to 1,000 yds in one revolution and my MOA turret gets me to 900 yds in one revolution, but I still have plenty of turning past 900 yards to get me to at least 1,200 and maybe to 1,500? Hopefully Vortex can have the custom turrets made with yardage or Meters measurements for 3 revolutions for the guys with the "big cannons" for much longer distances than I need. You have to understand that I am new to long range shooting and you need to get advice straight from Vortex about their PST and other scopes. The people at Vortex helped me to go in the direction that was best for me and as for the Custom Turret they made me it is absolutely amazingly accurate. I can not understand how they were able to get it perfect the first time. They must really know their stuff. If you give them very accurate drop measurements that you measured on your targets at the distances from your zero they will give you a quality product. From what I have read is that shooting in F class the targets and distances are measured in Mils and you may need to take this into consideration. Please research this for yourself because I am not very knowledgeable about F class. I hope I have been helpful, joseph [/QUOTE]
