It's not 103 ...

103 it's the fov OW uses, but if you set the same in AH it does feel different.

It's an issue of vertical versus horizontal FOV, you can convert between the two here: http://themetalmuncher.github.io/fov-calc/

EDIT: Welp steam decided to censor the link with it's lovel over zelous censor, you can just google it. Or calculate it yourself: https://www.reddit.com/r/Planetside/comments/1xl1z5/brief_table_for_calculating_fieldofview_vertical/

End of the day the 103 of Ovrwatch is equivalent to a 71 in Aim Hero because math!

U can customize your own fov in OW,from 71-100(more than 100)
CS is 75

Are you guys sure that 71 is correct number? Coz either the 71 FOV is wrong or the Aim Hero Overwatch sens is wrong as it's nowhere close to 1:1.

Yes, Aim Hero measures FOV in the number of degrees you see vertically, while Overwatch measures FOV in the number of degrees you see horizontally (if you play at 16:9 aspect ratio).

Using the formula h=2*arctan(tan(v/2)*a), where v is vfov, h is hfov, and a is your horizontal resolution divided by your vertical resolution, we find that a vertical fov of 70.5 is pretty much the same as 103 horizontal fov. Using that in Aim Hero as well as the Overwatch sensitivity setting (opposed to the CS:GO scale) should give you a basically perfect 1:1 scenario.
