    Even the Americans gave up on using imperial to get man into space because the calculations were nigh on impossible. In the end they converted everything to SI for the calculations, ... then converted the results back to imperial.

    Me? I'm happy with anything, a measurement is a measurement and it is the same distance whatever measuring system you use and converting between them is easy. I tend to use metrics to measure distances and error at target and just to a quick mental calculation, only takes a second, to convert to my MOA scope.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
