McNally is a lunar crater that is located to the north-northwest of the much larger Fersman crater, on the far side of Moon. This is a worn crater with a rounded rim edge that is marked by many tiny impacts. Smaller, cup-shaped impacts cut through the rim along the southeast and the northern edges. There is a small craterlet along the base of the southeastern inner wall. The interior floor is otherwise relatively featureless.
Adam McNally named this crater.
