I agree that the best part of a mil scope it's ranging ability but IMO, ranging from a reticle in the hunting field is pretty useless past mid range and even then, fairly inaccurate. It's however very useful for tactical use. I prefer mils because the numbers are smaller and the reticle is less cluttered. The scope I use now is moa cause that's the only way it came and it was on sale. Pretty much everything else I have is mil.
