    Pete! You missed the biggest advantage of MRAD! a 950 hold in MRAD is 8.9 mil so 1.5 revolutions of turret, where the MOA is 30.7 moa which in the same scope would be 2.2 revolutions

    I have always shot MOA. I got my first MRAD scope and slapped it on my Rem 700 just so I can learn to use it for range estimation. I like picking up new skills.
  • @TangoOne
    I use MOA and my buddy who I shoot with uses MRAD. Since we spot for each other, while confusing at first, it allows us to both learn each others system.
  • @PhalanxArms
    Really good, solid info. I used to use MOA and switched to MIL for the same reasons you mentioned. Communication between shooters and more simple numbers made it easier.

    Excellent video. Thanks for taking the time to film and edit it and of course for positing it for our benefit. Keep up the good work! -Migs
  • Great info Piet thanks! My older rifles (hunting) are in MOA. My new rifle with ACC chassis with Strike Eagle is in Mils. Bit of a learning curve but I’m enjoying the journey! Thanks 🍻
  • @wetfuego6331
    Thanks for the breakdown, this video came out at the right time. I just switched to a MIL based scope and didn't know how it compared to all the MOA optics I've used.
  • @AdamPerkinsPhD
    I have four rifles. Two with MOA scopes and two with MIL scopes. I don't calculate anything, I just get the range and then refer to a drop chart for each one. Nice and easy.
  • @markalambert78
    I have switched to 1/8 MOA, scopes. For what I do I like to get quite precise and fine adjustments count. I just picked up a March Majesta and have never been happier! Cheers.
  • Duisend dankies Pietman! Waarde volle inligting, dankie vir al jou moeite en tyd kwagga👌👏💪
  • @nspendlove
    Holy cow this was helpful. I finally understand the pros and cons of each. Thanks!
  • I started shooting MIL 5 years ago. I found it easier to use when dialing out to distance as you said. The only time I've had any issue is in F-Class competition where everyone else is running MOA. We had a funky thing with the electronic targets where we had to add 1MOA so we were grouping above the X, simply to keep the actual X on the paper targets clear and visible through the match. Little bit of math and I got it dialed right in.

    This guy is always so funny. Great sense of humor.
  • @luloadventure
    Thank you so much for your explanation between MOA & MRAD. I am new in the Long Distance Shooting. Subscribed.
  • @tjfrench03
    MIL all the way. Keep up the great videos and heal quickly to get back out and shoot.
  • @smsteyn
    Yes Piet, like die blooper reel.
  • @touratou1
    Awesome video! I've checked a lot of videos about moa vs mrad and none of them compare to this onen
  • great video man i use MOA everyone i shoot with uses that and for me it makes more sense than mrad. I see the advantages to both though.
  • Great explanation, you cleared up a lot of questions I had on what format my next purchase would be and why! I'm new to the long distance / PRS scene and use a MOA optic. I feel my next optic purchase will be in MRAD. Thanks for posting!
  • I was trained using MOA but I have recently made the switch to MRAD. MRAD is superior in my opinion. Easier to remember dope and faster to dial in. Makes for faster engagements and faster transition between different distances.
