By far the most clear and concise way that I have ever heard this explained. Bravo.

Thank you, the best explanation I’ve heard so far. I finally understood better the concept.

Thank you for being a teacher, I'm trying to learn and you have shown me more in 5 minutes than I have learned in a hour with other people trying to explain the scope and math that I really suck at but you keep teaching there are many people like me that learn from people like you, thank you,

as soon as I saw the 1911, I smiled. I've ordered my very first 1911 and I am just waiting for it to arrive. Excellent video!

The absolutely best description of Mils and MOA, breaking it down to the reticle scale .

0.1 mrad = to 1 cm @ 100 meters and 1 mrad =10 cm @ 100 meters and so on . For example @ 500 meters 0.1 click is = 5 cm. its a piece of cake no need to get confused Very easy to calculate MOA is better to use with inch measurements

I've always used MOA. I got a MRAD on good deal and this guy just cleared up so much confusion for me.

I'm a machinist with a PCP Airgun. Obsessed with accuracy shooting groups at over 100yds sub MOA. Regulated .25 cal Taipan veteran. LOVE THIS!

Thank you for the great infos. I’m trying to understand the difference between the two before making a purchase on my next scope. So I guess I will be sticking to MOA as I always do. Once again, thank you!

I am new to shooting & scopes but highly impressed by the way you explained such complicated thing in very simple way, please make more videos like this, God bless you.

Excellent explanation just over 6 minutes. Very effective...earlier today, I just finished talking to a tech support gentleman at Vortex and he told me the same thing. It is all about preference..well described!! Thank you
