[QUOTE="Jon A, post: 109179, member: 319"] I agree. If a scope says MOA it should be assumed 1.047" @ 100 until measured otherwise. That's not to say there aren't 1" @ 100 scopes (by design or not). I think US Optics will build you one in SMOA, but it'll be labeled SMOA. Checking "the company line" for a few manufacturers, for USO MOA is MOA, Leupold when listing both MOA and inches uses actual MOA and from what I can tell from Nightforce they do as well (they say a 2 MOA reticle is "approximately 2" at 100 yds). Every ballistic program I've used (that doesn't have an input to adjust it) uses MOA = 1.047" @ 100. All that said, measuring is the only way to be sure (your particular scope might not be either exactly). [/QUOTE]
