[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1869247, member: 68875"] FFP subtensions are always the same. If you memorize your drops, because BDC is almost NEVER exactly 200, 300, 400, 500 yds-most are something like 1.5MOA, 4.5MOA, 7.5MOA, 11 MOA , but only at max power, a FFP will ALWAYS be 2MOA, 4MOA, 6MOA, 8MOA (for example), no matter what magnification you are on. Go down to 9/16 power on a SFP, and you better be really good at math really fast for accurate holdovers. Because your "400 yard" subtension is now probably 481 yard subtension. So if you know 300 yards is 4.5MOA, doesn't matter whether you are on 3x or 12.2x or 14.8x or 20x. 4.5MOA is always 4.5MOA. [/QUOTE]
