Anyone know a good place to purchase this particular scope? Iv been calling around with no luck. Nikon scope dealers in Ontario?
 
Yes, that is minute of angle.
1/2moa translates to roughly adjustments of 1/2"@100yrds per turret click.

Great clarity scopes but not full target scopes.

Keep in mind that they are 1/2moa scopes and not 1/4moa.

They are 1/4moa at 50 yards only.

This is a misleading statement. Minute of Angle or MOA is an angular measurement. This means it is true for any range, it doesn't matter how far away you are from your target the amount of angular change per adjustment click is the same value at all ranges. For example, moving 1/4 MOA (0.25 MOA) will move your point of impact 1/4 MOA at all ranges. This translates into roughly 1/4" at 100 yards, 1/2" at 200 yards and so forth. The angular change is the same, what changes is the distance in inches (or any unit of distance/length) at a given range that corresponds to that much angular change.

Also, from Leupolds website it appears the EFR scopes have 1/4 MOA adjustments.
 
I understand! the farther you are each adjustment click will translate into a wider range so when it says moa of 1/4 it should say the range at witch that would be say 100 yards so 50 yards would be 1/8 ?

Yes you are right the adjustment becomes more coarse at extended ranges, and a scope with 1/4 MOA adjustments will in fact move 1/8" per click at 50 yards. But no, they don't need to tell you which range the adjustments are true for if they list it in MOA. This is the crucial part. As I previously mentioned, MOA holds true for all ranges. The numbers just work out nice such that a scope with 1/4 MOA adjustments adjust in 1/4" increments at 100 yards. This is the "easy range" for MOA as 1 MOA at 100 yards is 1.047" so using the approximate value of 1" is really close.
 
Cool thanks for the help it might work out fine then not really gonna get crazy into bench rest just some fun 100 yard or closer shooting, don't really wanna spend a huge amount on a scope
