I know this of "old hat" for most of the guys here. But this is possibly the best video I've ever seen explaining Minute of Angle and how it relates to scope adjustment.

Angular measurement is angular measurement. IMO, it makes no difference which you use...and it can't hurt a thing to be good with both systems.

Well, that's just one of those things. I prefer vanilla over chocolate, but I do not hate chocolate. I do hate sauerkraut, though.

I like Model 70s a lot. I do not care for Sakos because of the way they feel in the hand---regardless of their reputation for accuracy. They may shoot well, but to me there's more to rifle ownership than just what happens when you pull the trigger. I don't think I hate any firearm, but I do have definite preferences even if I can't explain them very well most of the time any more than I can explain my preference for vanilla.

We all have preferences that simply stand on their own without necessary justification.
