    Worth remembering, inch, assuming it holds, is only 2 inches off your actual aim point at 400, an moa rifle (or slightly more than moa) will kill all/any of our big game animals at 400 as long as your placement is correct to start with. If I was hunting with a 2" smelly, I'd be happy as out to 300 on any reasonable sized animal.

    Most people are turning up their noses at anything that doesn't shoot close to a one hole groups these days! and it aint necessary!
