Minute of Arc, Wiki link here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute_of_arc

It is to do with distance a bullet travels from the gun to the target, try to imagine that the gun is at the centre of a circle, the target is at the circumference and the distance the bullet travels is the radius of the circle.
