[QUOTE="Shawn Carlock, post: 56488, member: 4"] BigBen, The moa measurment is the same for everything. How well a particular rifle shoots is another. The only way to find out is to shoot the rifle at a given distance and measure the groups. Now just because a rifle shoots 1/2 moa (.50 inches @ 100 yards) doesn't mean anything other than it is a 1/2 moa rifle at 100 yards. [B]Most[/B] rifles shoot progressively poorer as distance increases. Take your 1/2 moa 100 yard rifle, I would expect that it would shoot some where around 3.5 inches at 500 yards or .70 moa. The bottom line is you just have to shoot the rifle at the distances. If you are in the market for a 1 moa 1000 yard rifle the only sure way to know if you in fact have one is to shoot it at that distance. Shawn [/QUOTE]
