You see it on every rifle box: "guaranteed sub-MOA." But what does MOA actually mean? A range instructor breaks down minute of angle in plain English, what a sub-MOA group really is, and why it comes down to consistency.
- MOA = minute of angle, about 1 inch at 100 yards (technically 1.047")
- Sub-MOA: a 3-shot group under an inch from a bench
- Why your scope adjusts in 1/4 or 1/8 MOA clicks, and how that scales with distance
- A 20-MOA base for reaching way out
- Why accuracy is really about consistency: barrel quality and bedding
