    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute_and_second_of_arc

    Such adjustments are trivial when the scope's adjustment dials have a MOA scale printed on them, and even figuring the right number of clicks is relatively easy on scopes that click in fractions of MOA. This makes zeroing and adjustments much easier: To adjust a 1 ⁄ 2 MOA scope 3 MOA down and 1.5 MOA right, the scope needs to be adjusted 3 × ...

  4. Shot grouping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_grouping

    Shooting at close range indicates a cylinder bore barrel to deliver a wide grouping, while for hunting at longer distances such as 50 yards or meters, a choke is recommended to constrict the scattering for a tighter pattern. [3] In archery, a shot grouping is the result of one person shooting multiple arrows at a target.

    ⁠ 20 mm / 50 m ⁠ = 0.4 mrad, or 4 clicks with a ⁠ 1 / 10 ⁠ mrad adjustment scope. ⁠ 50 mm / 1000 m ⁠ = 0.05 mrad, or 1 click with a 0.05 mrad adjustment scope. In firearm optics, where 0.1 mrad per click is the most common mrad based adjustment value, another common rule of thumb is that an adjustment of ⁠ 1 / 10 ⁠ mrad changes ...

    Here is an example of a ballistic table for a .30 calibre Speer 169 grain (11 g) pointed boat tail match bullet, with a BC of 0.480. It assumes sights 1.5 inches (38 mm) above the bore line, and sights adjusted to result in point of aim and point of impact matching 200 yards (183 m) and 300 yards (274 m) respectively.

  7. Long range shooting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_range_shooting

    For long range shooting it is important to compensate for the wind by observing the wind's strength and direction, and then adjust the sights accordingly by rules of thumb. Wind force can be estimated by feeling the wind at the shooting position and seeing signs of it in the terrain.

    Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics (MOA) is a collaborative project between researchers in New Zealand [1] and Japan, [2] led by Professor Yasushi Muraki of Nagoya University. [3] They use microlensing to observe dark matter , extra-solar planets , and stellar atmospheres from the Southern Hemisphere .

  9. Permeability (foundry sand) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(foundry_sand)

    Permeability is a property of foundry sand with respect to how well the sand can vent, i.e. how well gases pass through the sand. And in other words, permeability is the property by which we can know the ability of material to transmit fluid/gases.
