[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1493833, member: 30902"] True MOA vs the 1" at 100 general rule of thumb most people use which is off by about 4%. Not a big deal out to 400 yards but when you start pushing on out it makes a difference. You also should consider true Ballistic Range vs LOS or straight line if you're shooting at any angle. It's a calculated correction for any angle. No matter what the straight line distance from the shooter to the target the gravity is only acting on the bullet for the length of the bottom let of the triangle. If you're shooting at any significant up or down angle, your true ballistic range is going to be much shorter than the SL distance. [/QUOTE]
