MOA Explained in 2 Minutes 

Just here to say that's a respectable hand drawn circle Ziga's got.

Žiga teaching math is something i never know that i need in my life. Great explanation and cool t-shirt.

Are we not gonna talk about that circle Ziga drew without trying?

A physicist, an engineer, and a statistician go on a hunting trip. They are walking through the woods when they spot a deer in a clearing. The physicist calculates the distance of the target, the velocity and drop of the bullet, adjusts his rifle and fires, missing the deer 5 feet to the left. The engineer rolls his eyes. 'You forgot to account for wind. Give it here', he snatches the rifle, licks his finger, and estimates the speed and direction of the wind and fires, missing the deer 5 feet to the right. Suddenly, the statistician claps his hands and yells, "We got him!"

how can someone NOT appreciate that near-perfect circle at 0:15

Short sweet to the point, thanks I'll use this vid to explain moa from now on

Nice Impreza!

While the diameter(moa) of the group is linear to the distance, the size(area) of the group is squared. 1moa at 300yd has approximately 9 times the area of 1moa at 100yd.

One of the/if not The best explanations of this I have seen! 🙂 Good work! 🙂

Guys can go an hour explaining MOA. Ziga explained it in 2.5 minutes..

This is a good explanation, but I'm just here to read the positive message on his shirt. We all need some of that energy sometimes.

That's a great explanation to make! Hope the polenar team is having a good day!

Honestly this has been pretty helpful. I always hear moa all the time but it was never fully explained to me. Thanks Ziga. 👍

That was a nice circle

My dad is a land surveyor and so am I. He taught me this when i was a kid.

Holly crap that's freaking awesome! Blue is my favorite sti color!!!! Tell me that's y'all's! Also fantastic explanation of moa, simple and easy to understand

Freehand Circle master ziga who knew

Thank you papa Žiga

Just when i thought I couldn't love Poppa Polenar more, he has a Subaru wrx sti on the background.

Bro that circle was nuts

Thanks for explaining. Wishing all the best. Hope that everyone and everything are well.

Thank you well explained

He must know what he's talking about, I mean, he keeps his car in a laboratory clean room.

Great video.

shooter dude explaining geometry, awesome!

Nice STI

Good taste in guns and cars. Recall you running a 226 before Arex and having a WR Blue with livery STi

Man, is Žiga bulking up? Are we having a Slovenian Garand Thumb soon? :D

Don't even flex on us with that circle Ziga. Its not fair.

Moa is 1.047". This matters shooting past point blank using the old mixed moa-mil scopes. Holds on a tuned rifle + ammo + optic + turrets cut for known ammo would get trued at a given distance. This would dope the holds using a mildot reticle with moa turrets. Generally with 7.62x51 you're good to 600yds/550m before wind becomes a serious problem. Youre reduced to 400yds/350m with 5.56 before wind pushes you off a man sized target. This is for static targets, not ones moving around. Good to understand the math. Also good to true your holds. Point blank should be understood as the range the total package you are shooting can hit a target without drop. Somewhere in that math is how you setup a reticle so your holds work. If you setup too shallow within point blank distance BDC tends to be something you have to fight or memorize rather than use effortlessly. People tend to shoot military clone gear using surplus or mil clone ammo. They forget that 2-4moa works fine on an 18" wide target. They dont grok how effective distance works when solely concerned with hitting an 18" wide target vs a 1moa "5" scoring area on a 1000yd F class target.

Short and clear

Another Great Video💯 Thanks for Sharing 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Is nobody going to mention the damn subi imp STI he's LEANING THE PAPER ON!?!

Thanks great explanation

Hey that’s a good circle right there.

Omg thank you for this explanation since thats one of the aspects of shooting that i just didn’t understand.

Nice Subaru

Outside of the firearms industry, the measure is typically called "minute of arc."

Ok we get it, you have a cool sti with sweet rally decals. I know thats why you guys made this video 😏

Immediately distracted by the WRX STI in the background and 2 minutes later realized there was maths going on. 😅

Seems like common sense factor explained in technical terms🐸🍺🔪🔥

I never heard a full explaination I only knew that 1 MOA is a 1" group and 100yards, not how or why it's calculated that way

Mmm, math..... Good explanation. Rather an old shooter here. Cone of fire was the term I recall from my youth.

Ah, similar to the 1 in 60 rules that pilots use. 1 degree deviation for 60nm is a 1nm deviation. I wonder how many people realise that boring trigonometry actually rules our lives?

I see you got that subie. My bro.

Nice Subaru.

Brilliant!!!

"Its not a measure of size at distance" So what can you measure with it? "The *size* of your group at a specific *distance* "

I'm a 44 yo construction worker and use this. Young guys can't even estimate feet let alone yards or windage

We need a video about that STi!

That beautiful WRX STi at the back 👀

A little trig never hurt anyone...unless you're the target

Nice car!

Nice explanation! So next up, what do you do with MOA? How do you use the concept?

Thx jigga 🍻😺

Ziga “1 minute of angle is 1 inch at 100 yards” European brains explode.

isn't it aorund 29,something mm, so roughly 1,145 small idiot units (not to be confused with small medium idiot units, which is twelve small idiot units, or large medium idiot units, which is three small medium idiot units or 36 small idiot units)?

Let me go into "well ackchyually" mode: MOA is actually 1.047 at 100 yards. Not much of a difference, but a difference nonetheless :) Also in terms of accuracy "1 MOA group" is one that fits into a circle that is 1 MOA edge to edge. Area of this circle is π * (radius square) so if radius increases twofold the area increases twofold square, so fourfold, for trippled radius the area increases 9 times and so on. The area of 1MOA does not increaase linearly but geometrically with distance. "well ackchyually" mode off :)

One day, we'll start measuring in SOA

I wish we used radians (400 per a circle) instead of degrees (360) because it would make math simpler in other areas.

question: 1 moa at 100 yards = all hits inside a circle of 1 inch radius or 1 inch diameter?

DO A MILRAD VIDEO PLEASE

This should have been a collab with science GT

Something That I've Taught People For Over 40 years, Just Not That Quick !!!! You Dam Kids and This Interzone's. If It Wasn't for You, I Wowdova Gotten Away With It !!! 😂 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Freddie Mercury knows a lot about angles man I like it

Loving the new dad stache

nice Subaru

dont want to be that guy, but at double the distance, its not double the cm², its squared the cm².. so 1distance = x cm², 2distance = 4x cm², 3distance = 9x cm²... for a good visual representation, look up "inverse square law"

I need that shirt, btw. ❤

Is it me or does Ziga look like Peter Sellers with the mustache? 🤔

become our math teacher pls

And approx 3cm at 100m for those of us who do metric. Any scope turrets do 1cm clicks at 100m?

I'm in the US and still prefer Mils

1 MOA = 1" at 100 y ... this is the feeling you get using the metric system all the time I guess XD

Good Žiga impressed, AR. Can you do it in metric too?

So you are saying that If I am supposed to meet a friend at 1p.m., forget the time and start the 10 minutes of angle journey at 12:55a.m. I will not hit the target because he is to far away? Please confirm, it is 1p.m. now!

If the video is 02:33 long, is this 2.33 moa explained? Also, nice circles.

Well done, you should be a teacher

*Seal of Asian Approval*

Sweet Mamma Brown ,AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FOR MATH.. I use a Supernatural system. PSALMS 144.1 💥👊🏻💪🙏🏻 that's righ a God guidance system is a must when your throwing love down range.

What is MOA?

Can someone smart dumb this down for me lol. I almost flunked high school cause of math so I need an even simpler version. I’ve been trying to understand MOA lately and a simple answer would really help! Nothing against, Ziga, I’m just dumb lol

Sorry I got distracted by thr Subie. Do you by any chance need a vape pen or a headgasket?

Now I want pie 🥧

799 Bashirian Branch

Soo owercomnplicated...i just grab small yeardstick and measure for example 4X3Cm by 3 holes,easy:)

I think ill stick with my 300blk pistol in short range to cqc engagements

Now do mil rad too.

Need the tomorrow will be worse watermelon 🍉 t-shirt 👕😂

Zalenszkt can draw!

So a shotgun spread is about 100moa? Roughly 100"? That's nearly 2.8yds or 2.6m!

so this details what MOA is in Tarkov..

❤

mil/mrad > moa because metric system

But why does your face hair look like that

Starting to look like Dennis Franz.

žiga how did you actually do in Math when you were a kid?

Okay so i tried doing that math on ny calculator and i keep getting 8008135. I have no idea what im doing wrong 🤷🏻‍♂️

Is that a freakin subaru impreza 4x4?????

Tan (1/60 deg) = x/100yd
