MOA or Clicks adjustments.
Whick is better
Iv seen scopes that come in... im pulling up a blank but there was a either a click adjustment and a MOA adjustment or somthing like that. Whats the difference and what would. I thought there was just MOA adjustment but some site offered a click or somthing else adjustment or the MOA version. Im pretty familiar with the MOA adjustment but clicks? And if there are other types please feel free to add them in and explain the differences because i had no clue other adjustments even existed.

As far as I know, "clicks" is just jargon for the smallest unit of adjustment.
One "click" is 1/4 inch, or 1/4 moa, or 1/8 inch at 100 yards. Some scopes actually "click", some don't. Most do. A "click" is the smallest increment, regardless. If you're 1/2 inch off at 100 and the adjustment is 1/4 inch at 100, then it's 2 "clicks". Of course, there's also a "klick", which is jargon for a kilometer, but that doesn't have much to do with a scope.

You can get adjustments in mils, also. They're used the exact same, just different quantities.
