Guys, I have a scope question that I would like some help / guidance with:: I currently am using a Hawke Sidewinder 30 (8-32x56) by default (on my RAW HM1000x, .25 / .30 cal), but have finally gotten around to leaning more about scopes after reading Ryan Cleckner’s book: Long Range Shooting Handbook. After reading the section on optics, I want a scope whose reticle and turrets are both either MOA or MIL. As such, I think i’m going to put my Hawke up for sale and buy one of these scopes:Athlon Optics Argos BTR Rifle Scope 30mm Tube 6-24 x 50mm First Focal Side Focus Illuminated Reticle MatteMy question for you: which should I choose between MIL and MOA since the scopes are offered in both options? I sort of understand or ‘think’ in MOA ok, but was wondering how difficult it is to learning to think in MIL? As an engineer, I generally prefer the metric system over the SI system when given the chance-if that helps at all.
Which is the least expensive place to buy one of these scopes? Are their any downsides to the scope that should make me hesitate in getting one?
Thanks guys!
Sean
