...and is a MOA rifle out to 200 yards...

Then it's MOA at all ranges. Just sayin'.

“Then it’s MOA at all ranges. Just sayin’.”

Don’t disagree, but accuracy at different ranges is also somewhat ammo dependent. A MOA load at 100 may disperse to more than that as the range increases, and indeed, a long range load may achieve MOA @ longer ranges but print larger groups at shorter ranges. Used to shoot high-power when my eyes and back were better, used different loads at 200, 300, and 600 for this reason. Lighter projectiles printed better at the shorter distances while heavier projectiles were MUCH better at 600.
