You Sure aren't missing Capitalization Keys on Yo keyboard!So, if I have a Rifle that Shoots One MOA at 100 yards,
Then I move Out to 1000 Yards.
The ONLY Variance Should be due to WIND, yes?
Or NO?
IF NO. What am I Missing?
You're probably missing by about a yard or 2 in any direction .So, if I have a Rifle that Shoots One MOA at 100 yards,

22LR @ 1k yds would be more like MORI. (Minute of Rhode Island)Your bullet will lose kinetic energy and while it will maintain the same MOA up to a point your groups will begin to open up at longer range even with perfectly still air. A 1 MOA 22 lr group at 100 yards will not be a 1 MOA group at 1000 yards.
I think you're looking for tangent, not sine; sine is opposite over hypotenuse.22LR @ 1k yds would be more like MORI. (Minute of Rhode Island)
I have t seen holdover mentioned in this thread, nor calculating sine for a true range estimate when shooting at an inclined or declined target…..
Daniel Boone was a man, yes a BIG man….. but he weren't no mathematician!
Really, you're looking for the inverse tangent. Any old tangent just don't do.
No, a tangent is what we go off on when hijacking a thread!I think you're looking for tangent, not sine; sine is opposite over hypotenuse.
COS is adjacent over hypotenuse.... Geez... nerd much?No, a tangent is what we go off on when hijacking a thread!
You're making me supertense….. hypotenuse nerd!
Besides, I meant cos.
