MOA= Minute of Angle. At 100 yards it is ~1". So a sub-moa rifle is usually 3-5 shots in an inch at 100 yards.That's the quick answer, it gets different as the range goes longer.
Thanks, that helps alot. I wonder why they call it that though(minute of angle).
Long story...short explanation is that it is physics/mathematical terminology.
