In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on a long-standing myth in the American hunting community: that 1 MOA equals 1 inch at 100 yards. Spoiler alert—it doesn’t. Jamie Dodson walks you through the real math behind minutes and mils, compares their pros and cons, and explains why the “language of hunters” might be more marketing than fact.

We’re diving deep into how rounding MOA values distorts your accuracy, why mils are faster, cleaner, and more honest, and why most of the world—and long-range shooters—prefer them. If you’ve ever been told that minutes are "simple" or "easier," this episode might change the way you shoot forever.

Plus, we preview next week’s episode where we expose the truth behind BDC turrets—it’s not bullet drop compensation, it’s being duped for cash.

Welcome to Episode 239 of the Long Range Shooting and Custom Rifle Building Podcast! I’m your host, Jamie Dodson, and in this episode, we’re proud to officially introduce Wolf Precision’s Prosumer Gunsmithing School—a first-of-its-kind educational initiative designed to teach shooters how to build, assemble, and maintain true custom rifles from the ground up using our revolutionary ACE system.

We break down the difference between our Assembled Rifle Kit and the Prosumer Gunsmithing Kit, explore why the pre-fit barrel model is flawed, and reveal how we’re bridging the gap between overpriced “custom” factory rifles and unsupported DIY builds. Whether you want to build your own rifle, understand your gear better, or one day join the ranks as a certified Prosumer Gunsmith or Master Builder, it all starts here.

We also share exciting updates on our online school launch, how to access training through the Wolfpack via Patreon, and why this shift represents the next big leap forward for precision rifle shooters across the country.

So if you’ve ever dreamed of building a rifle better than you could buy—and doing it with confidence—this episode is for you
