[QUOTE="jwp475, post: 268447, member: 3776"] I started out with the NPR-2 reticule and MOA turrets and they do indeed work fine. I also like you thought in inches and MOA and thought that for me that was the best way to go. Finally I got a Mill reticule and Mil turret scope and found that I like that combo more. Example to get to 1,000 yards with my 338 Lapua at sea level with a Mill turret it take 6.9 mills sighted 2" high at 100 yards. That's not even one revolution of the turret. With my NXS with the MOA turret it takes 23.75 MOA that's 2.375 revolution of the turret. Easy to get lost if you forget to set it back after the shot if you do not have a zero stop. Mills are divisible by 10 and are easy to work with. No need to worry about how many inches that you are adjust, you just need to know how many mills that is required to hi the target. Mills are easy IMHO I would never mix and match, in other words if useing a MOA reticule then use MOA turrets, if useing a Mill reticule then use Mill turrets Ranging with a reticule is not nearly as precise as ranging with a laser range finder IMHO Either mills or MOA will work perfectly for any one, I just like the Mills better since I started useing them [/QUOTE]
