Which do you prefer? I'm wondering about the reticles themselves, not so much the merits of mils vs MOA in general although I know that's a factor.
 
I've become a mil-guy in the last 2-3 years. The reticles are effectively the same if you don't want to discuss the differences in the math. I personally find the base-10 math of mils easier to do quickly in my head with mils and find the mil reticles less busy and distracting to look at. I think a lot of people are also in the same boat with me because MOA reticles like this are becoming less commonly available. SWFA only offers the MOA quad option on their fixed classic scopes. The HD versions and the variable classics are all Mil quad only. From an industry standpoint the demand for dialable scopes in MOA is less than 1/10th that for mil scopes.
