[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 458045, member: 1007"] The nice thing about using matched systems is lets say your drop is 10.75 MOA and you like to use hold overs as much as possible. Lets say you use a NPR2 reticle which is 2 MOA per hold over. You line up on 10 MOA and guess the rest of the .75 or you can dial 3 clicks up and hold right on 10 MOA for a PRECISION shot. Another good reason is so that you dont have to carry 2 drop cards or charts. Even if you like to dial, there will be times you dont have the time and you will have to hold over. If your card is in MOA, how are you going to hold MILS? Its not that combo systems cant or dont work, they just are not optimum and lend themselves to more mistakes. I have two scopes. One is a lupy mark 4 with MOA dials and MIL reticle. The other is an NXS MIL/MIL. I like the matches system MUCH better even though I use the other with much success. As far as MILS versus MOA, it is a personal preference. I like the MIL system for various reasons. But that is just my preference. M [/QUOTE]
