This video, presented by Ian McCollum of Forgotten Weapons, corrects previous assessments of Whitworth rifle accuracy by differentiating between 'Figure of Merit' and 'Minute of Angle' (MOA). It details the historical British military definition of Figure of Merit as mean radial dispersion and explains the statistical conversion to MOA. The corrected data shows the Whitworth's significant accuracy advantage over the standard Enfield musket in 1857, even at long ranges.
