[QUOTE="Badgerclaw, post: 1937531, member: 101780"] I didn't read all the replies, maybe someone mentioned this. Most posts I read talked about math, which is more precise, revolution per turret, yadda yadda. Who cares. If it's a hunting rifle. Both will allow you to hit the target fine, the difference being, I can use an MOA reticle to measure the tines on an elk, how tall or wide a buck is, and almost score an animal before I shoot (if its bedded down or feeding and I have time) because I'm american and I think in inches. Also if the range finder takes a cramp (I don't trust electronics) I can do math and range the animal easier. I know what a tree that's two feet wide at the base looks like. I don't know how many miles that same tree is to do the math, get a range in meters and then convert to yards. If you trust electronics and measure your distance in meters, go mil. If you think in inches and range things in yards, go MOA and learn how to use your reticle. [/QUOTE]
