[QUOTE="Black Hat, post: 1774284, member: 109036"] I use both MOA and MRAD. One example of my MRAD scopes is the Bushnell Elite Tactical G2DMR FFP Reticle 6-24x50mm, it offers 0.1 Mill clicks which equate to 10mm or 1cm at 100 metres and 100mm or 10cm at 1000 metres, and the same can be used to range targets, a 100mm target will appear 1MIL on the reticle at 100 metres, or hight of target in cm divided by image size mils times by 10 equals distance in metres, it's easy if you have grown up with the metric system. The First Focal Plane allows you to make use of the reticle at any magnification level and it offers a wide field of view helpful for fast acquisition of targets One example of a MOA scope I use is a Nightforce Competition 15-55x50mm FCR Reticle SFP, it offers 1/8" clicks at 100 yards equates to .125" at 100 yards and 1.25" at 1000yards verry fine adjustments. The Second Focal Plane Reticle it only true at 40 power magnification, and is much harder to range targets with, but usefull for holdover but don't be caught out trying that at a different magnification. Ranging requires the target size in inches divided by the image size of target MOA times by 95.5 equals range in yards, much harder to do in your head. Ranging targets isn't verry practical for hunting anyway so its irrelevant, but gives you an idea and can be fun for ringing steel, any system will work just fine if you have dope for your rifle and you can call wind in either.
