[QUOTE="Stgraves260, post: 1970552, member: 19988"] I used to do the 0.36” math but could never get it to work on my scopes. That’s why I used the .333” I Used to have some Night Force and Leupold Scope and I still used the same .333 click value For better accuracy. It’s just like the 1/10 mill. For some reason The .333 seams to work better for me when dialing up And building a rang card or even just zeroing my scopes in. When I use my .25 scopes they all seam to all ways be that .25. But when I have used mill scopes they all seam to differ .333, .36, .331 they have just never been consistent. 4 quarters is a dollar. So .25 x 4 = 1.00 you can never get a dollar out of .333 or .36 no mater how hard you try. I thank your talking about degrees in a circle. I’m talking about click value. I do know there is 360 Degrees in a circle and each degree is divided into 60 minutes. You seam to be explaining the math on how to range a target, and yes sir you are correct. it’s very hard to explain thangs sometimes in a email or text. On a .25 MOA scope at 100 yards, every click of the scope is .25”. So at 100 yards if you want to move your bullet impact 1” you must make 4 clicks or 1 MOA adjustments. Now if I’m ranging something and want to know how big it is using the mill Dots in a scope then I will use these numbers 1.0472. Why it’s because there is 1.0472“ in a circle at 100 yards. So when you are ranging a target at let’s say 700 yards away and it takes up 1 MOA in your reticle, then the size of the target is 7.33“ Tall. (( If I want to move my bullet impact 7.33“ at 700 yards It Would only take 1 MOAs of adjustment or 4 clicks. )) the math on that would be 1.75 x 4 = 7”. It’s because at 700 yards your .25 MOA scope is no longer moving .25” for every click. It’s moving 1.75” for every click. On a Mill scope you can use your .36 method to range your target. But to dial your scope up you have to use the .333 method. So to move your bullet up 7.33” at 700 yards the math would look like this. 2.31 x 3 = 6.93”. Or 3 clicks. [/QUOTE]
