[QUOTE="Newbie, post: 56049, member: 1921"] cheechako, When you find yourself unable to respond to the point of the conversation, you simply resort to calling me a jerk? Ad hominem attacks are easy aren't they? Let's back up and stay with the ACTUAL topic of the conversation. "cgsafaris" went to "The Basics, starting out" Forum and asked a legitmate question regarding the effects of the scope adjustments at various ranges. I did my best to provide an answer. If the answer was incorrect, please show me how. As to your claim that I was simply trying to "confuse" him is conerned, let's take a look again. I said : "If your scope has 1/4 MOA turrets, it will require 4 clicks to adjust your point of impact approximately 1 inch at 100 yards. The same number of clicks will move you twice as far at 200 yards, 3 times as far at 300 yards, etc." You said basically the same thing: "Look at it this way : 4 clicks will move the bullet 1" at 100 yards. 4 clicks will move the bullet 2" at 200 yards. 4 clicks will move the bullet 3" at 300 yards. And so on." How is what I said any more confusing when we both said the same thing? Is it the fact that I attempted to afterwards elaborate and show him how he could calculate any MOA shot placement effects at varying distances by providing a SIMPLE formula that can be performed on a $5 calculator in (literally) less than three seconds? How dare I! Are you implying that I was attempting to take credit for inventing the formula? It's used by TONS of shooters everyday. You evidently assuming that "cgsafaris" was confused by my post and needed your help to explain it is, if anything, an insult to his intelligence. I'm sure he understood it and I'm sure we all did. Now, if it was incorrect, please show me how. [ 09-08-2004: Message edited by: Newbie_71 ] [/QUOTE]
