forgive my noobishness, but what are they referring to when they say the FFII has a 4 MOA dot and the FFIII has 3 and 8 MOA dots?
I'm probably going to say this wrong, but I understand that a target has squares, and each square essentially equals 1 MOA and that if your rifle cloverleafs within one of those squares, you have sub-MOA accuracy...a good thing.
so I'm going to guess that when it says your dot is 3, 4 or 8 MOA, it's referring to the size of area your bullet will hit? the larger the MOA he greater the area your shot should land. from this, I'm taking it that 8 MOA would guarantee a hit at such'n'such range. this is isn't necessarily a bad thing when you're just trying to put down something...to incapacitate it and remove it from the fight and from being a concerned threat.
this is all subjective...if I'm wrong, it shows just how big a noob I am. if it's right...well, lucky guess.
thanks for playing with me!

I can't tell if you're kidding or not. Just in case... The squares on your targets represent approximately 1moa accuracy only if they are 1" and the target is placed at 100 yards.forgive my noobishness, but what are they referring to when they say the FFII has a 4 MOA dot and the FFIII has 3 and 8 MOA dots?

The size of the dot is just the size of the dot. It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the groups you're firearm is capable of shooting. A 3moa dot would cover a 3" circle if that circle was held up 100 yards from the optic. 8moa = 8" @ 100 yards, etc. If you're gun is capable of shooting 1" at 100 yards, and you're capable of holding the dot in the same spot, you'll end up with a 1" group. If you're shooting at closer ranges bigger dots can make sense for quick target aquisition. An 8moa dot at 25 yards would only cover 2" of a target. Plenty big if you're shooting torso sized targets.
