[QUOTE="FireFlyFishing, post: 3000522, member: 127412"] So, Mils and MOA are the same thing as they are both an angular measuring system. Where they differ is somewhat like looking at a tape measure that has inches vs. centimeters…kinda. I like MOA as I can look down range and judge 100 yards pretty well as I‘ve been doing it all my life. Plus, 1 MOA at 100 yards is darn near 1 inch. These figures work in my American brain. I would have to work at 100 meter judging for a while to get the hang of that range visually. The plus side of mils is the units of ten. The gents that have shot many long range rounds for Uncle Sam will point you To mils every time…because that’s what they trained on and used. If you’re comfortable with MOA…I’d say stick to it. However, if you’re up for a challenge, I’m guessing a few weeks behind a mil scope, and you’d probably pick it up. [/QUOTE]
