[QUOTE="StrutNut, post: 1142686, member: 88257"] This thread interests me quite a bit. In the end I chose SFP over FFP but always wonder if I made a mistake. My next scope will be a FFP on my DMPS. I am also surprised that tactical shooting matches are perceived or not like mid to long range hunting. I never been to one myself but want to. I would think it would be the equivalent to a rifle shooter as sporting clays is to a shotgun shooter. A variety of targets at different unknown ranges and shooting in different positions seems realistic in hunting. I guess to me the difference is I am not planning on going out to only shoot long range but whatever range the game presents itself and practice for that shot so I dont have to pass because of a lack of confidence. I have a lot of years behind the trigger but not Long Range Hunting so these kinds of topics are VERY interesting to me. If I did enter a match I wouldnt really want to do it with a tactical set up but rather my hunting set up as I am more interested in improving my skills then winning. I guess maybe that what was being referred to as in not realistic to long range hunting? I can see that point I guess but would still like to see one of these matches to see for myself. I just havent seen much for them here in MN. [/QUOTE]
