Me no math good. I've watched several videos on MOA, I just don't understand MOA. What the heck is a minute of angle? Mils might be easier for me to understand I guess. I just adjust until it's where I want it.
Oh no lol. Some things just click differently for different people. Minute of Angle is an angled measurement which means it grows larger as the distance increases. Think of it as a cone reaching out and you’re at the tip. I tried to illustrate this with the poorly edited diagram (I’m clearly not a graphic designer lol) Every yard adds .01” to the cone. So 25yds it’s .25”, 36yds it’s .36, 100yds 1.00”, 500yds it’s 5” etc. So if you have 1/2 moa adjustments and you’re zeroing at 25yds 2 clicks equal .25” or 1moa. So to move your impact 1” it would take 8 clicks. If you’re using yards then mils is a little more difficult. It’s still an angled measurement but 1mil is roughly 3.6” at 100yds which makes the math a little more complicated. I know the math can seem a little overwhelming but taking the time to do it saves so much ammo, time and frustration.
Why zero the red dot at 50 yards?

@@conceptualconcepts6.9 it sure does.
