Example
MOA measurements are very effective for ranging using a simple
formula. To use this formula, the shooter needs to know the size of
the target, or nearby object, in inches.
Using either the vertical or horizontal MOA scale, place the reticle
on a target of known dimensions and read the number of MOAs
spanned. You will obtain maximum accuracy in ranging by calculating
exact MOA measurements. MOAs should be estimated in 1/2s if
possible.
Accurate measuring will depend on a very steady hold. The rifle
should be solidly braced using a rest, bipod or sling when measuring.
Once you have an accurate MOA reading, use the formula to
calculate the distance.
