Time to buy. High(ish) dollar scopes?

I have been thinking about a US Optics scope that's IPHY rather than MOA.
So you use 1.000 instead of 1.047 as your multiplier..Sounds pretty cool?
On most scopes now 1 click equals .26175 inches at 100 yards
The US model is 1 click equals .2500 at 100 yards.

This can at least mean a "free" pair of good rings?

Thanks Lance. That was a detailed but understandable explanation of the Army mil roundoff v.s. US Marine Corps mils (MARCH's earlier mil value). I wonder what my old MilDot Master slide rule uses?

I'm still looking at other mountain rifle scope options but truly none have the features of the MARCH 3 - 24 x 42 in FFP, mil/mil.

Swarovski has a nice one but in a 1" tube, which I'm not happy with due to its inherently limited reticle movement.

Tangent Theta TT315M 3-15×50 MIL
Plenty for shooting out past 1300 yards.
Decent weight @ 27.7oz, 30mm tube, 12MIL of adjustment gets my 6CM out to 1365 where I do my LR testing in AZ, best glass out there, turrets are ridiculous, tracks perfect, fairly short, fairly low profile.

Also the S&B Ultra Shorts, 3-20×50 & 5-20×50. Those weigh a bit more, but dang, they are nice.

I like everything about Tangent Theta - except the boat anchor weight.

I like everything about Tangent Theta - except the boat anchor weight.

The TT315M & TT315H are only 27.7oz. The TT315P and TT525P are the heavy versions, but are the ultimate in scopes.

As with anything, reviews can be extremely subjective. For what it is worth, this video is rather long but this guy across the pond IMHO did an excellent job and very informative.
