Pretty standard for sighting in a scope or getting a feel for the adjustments of the turrets. Most scopes adjustments are measured in MOA (minute of angle). Each click of the scope turret is usually 1/4 MOA change (on some high $$$ scopes 1/8 MOA) and at 100 yards 1 MOA=1 inch. Well not exactly but close enough that I'd doesn't matter, the difference comes out to 0.47 of an inch at 1000 yards... supposedly. An inch is a nice easy number to work with and most of us can easily visualize in inches. I guess if you use the metric system you're fucked tho.
Scopes that adjust in Mils are closer to the metric system since they usually use 1/10 adustments. Easier for some folks, especially if you have any kind of mil based reticle and use it to range objects.
0.047 of an inch difference at 100, not 1000. Extra 0 by accident maybe?
Right an MOA is 1.047 at a hundred yards, at a grand that's 10.47. Maybe I should have clarified that as you move farther out the size of an MOA increases. Say you shot a 1moa group at 500yds you are just saying you shot "about" a 5" group at 500yds. Without the distance noted, nobody would know how far away that MOA group was shot from. I can't (and I don't personally know anybody that can) read wind, mirage, temps and drop within 0.5" of an inch at a grand. For me any thing past 500 yards is all academic.
As for mills I'm aware of the the system, but have never used or studied it that much, I thought that was an artillery kinda thing.
Never thought I would be debating the finer points of long range marksmanship on a graffiti forum.
Hurray for me & fuck you!

Yeah, I can't even find a range with more than a 500 yard line anywhere near me.
After reading about the MOA and Mil systems, I decided the Mil was easier for me.. Not necessarily everyone else.
All my friends that are writers laugh/make fun of me when they find out I'm into guns. Most of my friends that I shoot with think it's so cool that I write. Weird.

Reason: i'm high
thats a deal, but youre saying the sig is 357 which is their own ammo and i think expensive rounds. itd be a done deal if it was a 9, but still worth it, maybe get them to throw in an ankle holster
my homie wants to trade his stoeger coach gun plus cash for my delta elite, as soon as he asked me i said hell yea. i have never even shot the delta so no loss there really. plus i have always liked that coach gun
looks just like this, sorry for the huge pic
it's nickel with either a black walnut stock or synthetic, can't remember which
Awesome! Why shoot one bullet when you can shoot TWO bullets? This is the AF2011-A1 Double Barrel Pistol by Arsenal Fireams. It is just like a regular pistol, but shoot two bullets at once! Check out more watch the video of it in action!
"The gun can be handled by any shooter able to shoot with a .45 Acp and it is not only very pleasing, but very accurate and great fun. The AF2011-A1 holds amazing and surprising target performance for the shooter:
in fact, it will group all the 8 double .45 caliber rounds (16 bullets) held in the duplex, single columns magazines, in a target of the size of an orange at 15 yards and of a water melon at 25. The stopping power of the AF2011-A1 is tremendous:
2 bullets for a total of 460 Grains weight impacting at 1 to 2 inches apart (depending on the distance of the target) will knock down a bull, while the whole 18 bullets, for a payload exceeding 4000 Grains, can be delivered to the target in about 3 seconds."
