[QUOTE="Jon A, post: 203119, member: 319"] Not as "precise?" How exactly? It's a [I]unit of measure.[/I] Nothing about the unit defines its inherent accuracy or lack thereof. It's like saying yards are more accurate than meters. It's [B]stupid[/B]. From a practical standpoint, the most popular MOA reticle out there is probably the R2. Any Mil reticle with 1/2 Mil marks has marks closer together for elevation. And WAY closer for windage marks as 5 MOA are laughably precise. There's the R1 you say. Well there's also the MPR from USO with even more "precise" Mil marks. The design of the reticle determines how "precise" it is. The unit of measure chosen does not. No ****? You do realize I spend 100% of my hunting hours walking around with a $1600 rangefinder hanging around my neck, right? Implying that because I know what a Mil is means I don't use a rangefinder is getting highly annoying. See above. Plus, have you ever hunted with a buddy who does the ranging for you? He yells out the range and you can have the shot away in a fraction of a second with a good reticle and some skill. If you need a minute to prepare, not so much. [/QUOTE]
