[QUOTE="lerch, post: 196970, member: 3115"] Actually in a FFP scope the reticle doesnt change in size, it stays the same size in relation to the target throughout the power range of the scope. in all reality the SFP scope is the one that has the enlarging and shrinking cross hair if you think about it LOL you have to think of it as size in relation to the target and not what your eye sees. As for being on max power and having a reticle that is so large you cant really use it i know exactly what you are talking about. I first saw this on a swarvoski TDS reticle and on max power i dont think you could use it for a dang thing. Now on the new Leupolds I have been seeing that are FFP they are making the reticle be standard size when the scope is on max power which helps out alot, i am sure NF will do the same thing when theirs comes out. I know what you mean about a guy buying a Luepold B&C reticle and thinking he is a pro. a hundered times a fall i will sell a guy a Nikon BDC scope and the first thing he ask me is if it goes 200-300-400-500???? it has gotten to the point that i just wanna beat my head against the wall but instead i spend 15min explaining the whole thing to him all the while knowing he is gonna be flinging bullets at 500yds with that last circle:mad::mad: i was hoping this topic would turn out this good steve [/QUOTE]
