I spent the day yesterday launching lead via MOA and MIL turrets and reticles. Both were fun

I said that I do! So,...........
I still read the thread occasionally to see how far off track it has gotten.

I use MILs, but am still glad you brought it up again. I got quite a few laughs out of the last thread!  John

From what I read it was decided that all the long-range hunters use scopes. Nobody mentioned any MOA or mil iron sights, which seems prejudiced to me, but apparently haters gotta hate.

That's a good reason to pick up a Colt HBAR with A2 sights.
Thanks!

It's mostly the 'teeny boppers' that aspire to be snipers but in reality....they're just couch potatoes!! So in your opinion if one uses MILs he is a "wanna be sniper" but he he uses MOA he is a long range shooter, is that your position?

They'd probably accuse me of shooting a .270.. And you know what that means�..

I just draw my reticle on the front glass of the scope with an engraver and color it with a Sharpie. It�s my own scale directly between Mills and MOA. I was able to take last with it at several comps but it was not the fault of the scope.

Travis,
On the longest kill I've made with iron sights, a caribou at 350 yards, the bead on the pre-'64 Model 70's front sight "covered" the bull's chest. So guess I was using MOC (minute-of-caribou) rather than MOA or mils.
The cartridge was the .270 Winchester, but the bullet was a 150-grain Hornady Interlock, so I may be OK with Ingwe.
