[QUOTE="ricka0, post: 57315, member: 3086"] [url="http://groups.msn.com/ultralongrangehunting/cos1.msnw"]ricka's simple COS example[/url] I posted my EARL a couple days ago but some 2nd ammendment lover [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] 1st amm hater [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] nuked it. As W says: [ QUOTE ] shooting and the difference between MOA and inches of drop; they do not work the same [/ QUOTE ] MOA = Drop in inches/yds*100 - (1.04" would be ridiculous for the field) So they are directly related. Do any of the ballistics packages account for uphill vs. downhill? Shooting my 50 BMG 40 degrees up or down at a target 1300 yds away makes a difference. I was poking fun of the company for the way they mis-spelt COS as cosign. Not sure what value a useless dictionary def gives other than SPAM. It's not what we mathematicians use. [/QUOTE]
