    If we need to range a target at an unknown distance, we have to speak MOA.
    This statement is incorrect. Linear distance/range is measured in a linear unit not an angular unit.

    Other than that I do use MOA sort of, ... the conversion is not quite that easy when the ranges round here are in metric so 25m, 50m, 200m etc. I suspect a lot of the confusion comes from the fact that the unit symbol for MOA is the same as for Inches.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
