    1/4" M.O.A @ 100 yards...

    Whats the inch fraction equivilant of this? i.e. if my scope was 2" to the left and 2" down, how many clicks right would i need and how many up @ 100 yards?

    One Minute Of Angle is equal to one inch at 100 yards (not sure if it's exact, but it's close enough). One click on the scope therefore equates to 1/4 inch at 100 yards, so unless my maths is wrong you need to move eight clicks on each turret.

    unless you have bought a very expensive scope i would not believe the graduations.

    get a big bit of paper.
    put a dot on it
    put it 50yds away
    shoot at the dot enough to get a good group
    click the elevation turret 100 clicks
    do the same again
    measure the distance between the two groups.
    divide this by 100
    you will have the amount the poi moves/click
    @25 yds you will have to click it twice the amoumt of clicks
    @100 only half.

    hope this makes sense to you
