I don't have a problem with the MOA adjustments and the mil reticle. When I am sighting the scope in at a certain range, I make my MOA adjustments based on the
POI, and then leave them alone. If I am utilizing the mil reticle, I use it for fast acquisition for range, windage,lead, etc. If I have time, and know the static distance to a target (say, when shooting hi power competition), then I mark my settings, use my "come ups" or "come downs" on the MOA turrets, and record such, so I can immediately reset to my sight in zero after the match. Works like a champ, even at the 1000 yards shoots. I have gone from my standing 700 yard zero on my long range rifle, A Rem 700 .300WM, and gotten sighted at 1000 yards with two shots. Then put it right back dead on at 700 by counting back my match adjustments. I basically use the mil scale for tactical (read that FAST) applications, and verifying ranging.
