A basic introduction to MOA, SMOA, and MILS
One thing that gets on my nerves and shows a lack of knowledge is "If you think in inches, get Minute Of Angle (MOA). If you think in meters, get Mil-radian"(Mils). That's not how it works! First, you should not think in inches but only in MOA or Mils. Secondly, 1 MOA is not an inch, It's 1.047 inches. And Mils are 1/1000 of any measurement. 1 Mils = 1" @ 1000", 1' @ 1000' , 1 meter @ 1000 meters. Because you choose to use Mils doesn't mean it doesn't convert to inches. In fact, it can equal exactly 1 in.
1 MOA = 1.047" @ 100 yards = 1/60 of a degree
1 Milliradian = 3.6" @ 100 yards = 1/1000 of a radian
SMOA = 1" @ 100 yards
