— the abbreviation for minute of arc is 1/60 of a degree. Initially, this unit is associated with the English system of measures and is convenient primarily for calculations in yards and inches: at a distance of 100 yards, an angle of 1 MOA corresponds to a linear dimension of approximately 1 inch. In the more familiar metric system for us, this gives 2.91 cm at a distance of 100 m. We also note that this unit is a kind of accuracy standard: it is believed that a full-fledged sniper rifle should give a spread of no more than 1 MOA.
