[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 540237, member: 21068"] IMO, MOA is the simpler of the two. I've used them both also, Mil originally then bought my first NF scope in the mid 90's. The NF had moa, and it's much quicker/simpler to use in the field for ranging/measuring target size than the mil scopes were. The math is much more intuitive, especially when reverting to shooter moa or IPHY. Reverting to IPHY is really quick and easy to do in my head............not super precise, but reticle ranging has never been super precise anyway, at least not on game animals. We need to know their [U]exact[/U] size for it to be really accurate. 1/4 moa is more precise than 1/10 mil, and it's easier to visually break down a separation between dots/hashes into 1/4's then it is to break in down to 1/10's.........at least it is for me. MOA reticles are "busier", which some dont like, but that's the only downside I can think of. [/QUOTE]
