This is why I buy First Focal plane, or fixed power scopes... Way to much math!

But for the sake of argument, I believe that scope is "true" at max magnification. or 24x. TChat means a 1 MOA spacing will be 2 MOA at 12x ( wherever that is on the dial, no matter where the numbers are!)

 But it looks like your math is correct. You also need to map your magnification ring to see if where they put the numbers is true... They are notoriously off. See my opening statement...


 And BTW, MOA are not mil-dots. Two completely different way to measure an angle!
