[quote=ruffcutt] They don't necessarily suck, but it is certainly easier to use a straight mil/mil scope. Less math (converting moa to mil) = less chance of screwing up.
No one who knows anything about LR shooting has any problems using a scope set up in this configuration.
Your drop data is in MOA and your wind data is in MILs. Dial the drop and hold off for wind with the TMR.
If you dial wind, all your data will be in MOA and you just dial it and hold in the middle of the target.
Where is there a chance for a screw up or the necessity to do any MOA/MIL conversions?
I see what you're saying, Rick, and I use some of my MOA/MIL scopes exactly this way, but IME with rifle setups that allow me to spot my own shots, I've really enjoyed being able to use my scope both as a riflescope, and also as a reticle-equipped spotting scope. When I can spot my own shots and use my reticle to estimate necessary corrections, it makes it easier when the reticle and turrets are marked and graduated in the same units.
At least this has been my experience. YMMV.
Hey Jordan,
When I was using this configuration, I found it easy to make sight in adjustments to simply hold on the POA and dial to the POI
To make second round shot adjustments, I simply used the reticle to measure and hold for the second round. O
I'll never fault a man for using what works for him, and that setup obviously works for you! It works for me also, when necessary, I just prefer a matching reticle/ turret when I can get it.
