    ⁠ 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 ...

  4. Shot grouping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_grouping

    Handguns are typically less accurate; at a shooting distance of 25 yd, a grouping is considered acceptable for self-defense if the shots fall within a circle of 4 to 5 inches, which is 15 to 19 MOA (equivalent to a grouping of 100-150 mm at 25 meters, which is 4-6 mils), [9] representing the shot pattern needed to hit the vital organs of a ...

    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 × ...

    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.

    The round also increases accuracy, from 3–5 minute of angle (MOA) with the M855 from an M4A1 barrel to 1.71 MOA at 300 yards and 1.67 MOA at 600 yards from a 14 in (360 mm) SCAR-L barrel. [ 50 ] For general issue, the U.S. Army adopted the M855A1 round in 2010 to replace the M855.

    Angle of repose of a heap of sand Sandpile from the Matemateca collection. The angle of repose, or critical angle of repose, [1] of a granular material is the steepest angle of descent or dip relative to the horizontal plane on which the material can be piled without slumping.
