Expensive and well-machined match-grade pistols demonstrate a higher accuracy than normal handguns, capable of groupings of 1.25 inches at 25 yards, which is about 5 MOA (equivalent to about 30 mm at 25 meters, which is 1.2 mil).
The subtension is linear with the distance, for example, at 500 yards, 1 MOA subtends 5.235 inches, and at 1000 yards 1 MOA subtends 10.47 inches. Since many modern telescopic sights are adjustable in half ( 1 / 2 ), quarter ( 1 / 4 ) or eighth ( 1 / 8 ) MOA increments, also known as clicks , zeroing and adjustments are ...
Its shot-to-shot variation is expected to be better than 1 minute of angle (MOA) with match ammunition. This level of accuracy is only average compared to most modern bolt action sniper rifles, but is still exceptional for a semi-automatic rifle and at one time was claimed to be "one of the most accurate semi-automatic sniper rifles in the world."

If using the imperial units yards for distance and inches for target size, one has to multiply by a factor of 1000 ⁄ 36 ≈ 27.78, since there are 36 inches in one yard. distance in yards = target in inches angle in mrad × 27.78 {\displaystyle {\text{distance in yards}}={\frac {\text{target in inches}}{\text{angle in mrad}}}\times 27.78}
