[QUOTE="Loner, post: 568426, member: 24560"] A millidradian is 1/6,283.2 of a circle. (1/6400 is nato) or .0573 degrees. 3.4377 minutes in a mil. Mils are based on radians, moa on degrees minutes and seconds. One moa is 1.047 inches at 100, SMOA is one inch @ 100 and a mil is 3.6 @ 100 yards. I don't know how to get anything but .955 or .9551098 to be precise from converting moa to smoa. That is .04489 or 4.5%. Where is the math wrong. I have to admit I get mixed up sometimes. USO builds scopes in smoa unless they specify it is true moa. They do build both in normal production. Lupy for years built smoa and has since switched to true moa. Vortex is true moa. My Swaro (13 years old) is mil on the clicks .36 inches per click. You just have to read the manufacturers specs, they all list them. But then they have to be verified. Up until recently most were not true to spec. As the shooting world gets into dialing they get better and better. [/QUOTE]
