bedwards1966 Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) Minute Of Arc/Angle It's one sixtieth of a degree, which works out at 1.047 inches per 100 yards - usually just taken as 1 inch. If you shoot to an accuracy of 1 MOA then at 100 yards your shots will be within an inch, 50 yards 1/2 inch, 600 yards 6 inches and so on. I hope this explains it well enough, if you are really bored, need to understand it in detail or are just sad then here is a Wikipedia page on it.

kyska Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 What he said http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VA2PZBD5Tjg Bit cheesy to start with, but explains well, I think, as I know nothing about it either, but am learning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katash Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) I posted this reply to a similar question in a different thread a few weeks ago : If you want to learn how to correctly use mildots there is a good flash based simulation available here It has classroom lessons on wind estimation, MOA explanations, range tables etc .... There is a few demos available on the site but you have to pay $49 for the full version - Unless you know where to look.
