[QUOTE="Artful, post: 523662, member: 35250"] Good summary - let me just say that trying to set a variable to some power in the middle of it's range and have the distance between the dots meet the same specifications each time is not as easy as they would have you think. For example say you have a 6x24 scope but it must be at 10 power to have the distance between two points be 24 inches - if you have no stop and each time guess the 10X setting and then try and use the dots to measure a known 24 inches you will find that less than half the time will you be able to get it to be a true measurement. At least that's my experience with SFP and Mil-dot ranging.:rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
