[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1868506, member: 10291"] I own and have used both FFP and SFP for hunting and competition. As stated in the prior posts(and countless threads over the years), each design has its advantages and disadvantages, and choice comes down to personal preference. I haven't missed, or had to forego a shot while hunting because I was using one or the other regardless of the distance or lighting conditions given comparable quality and specs. I personally prefer an SFP for all my hunting, and, find the FFP a necessity for fast action competition(ie.PRS ). Ten shot stages in 90 seconds at targets from 200 to 1000 yards(many times using reticle only), is where the FFP comes into its own. For all forms of hunting, I personally prefer a consistent reticle substension, and place far more priority on glass quality and mechanical performance. All things being equal, an FFP can cost as much as 25% more then the comparable SFP. My personal choice is to put that difference in cost elsewhere, or, into a better quality SFP. [/QUOTE]
