[QUOTE="dfanonymous, post: 1594156, member: 97050"] I think the question has been answered. If you don’t need the reticle and subtension values to remain the same through out different magnifications then SFP will work just fine. If you still use or run a mil reticle for range verification...the whole T(inches)x27.78/mils or T(yards/meters)x1000/mils then you’ll have more accuracy in that with a ffp. Since most of you don’t need to be worried about being shot by some ******* wearing nightvision, I’m sure it’s unnecessary to mill when you can just use a laser rangefinders. There can be a accuracy run off with a ffp depending on how you zero, as the reticle gets larger and takes up more of a target space. I’ve aways zerod at max mag and naturally I only use enough mag to see the target itself. That’s to avoid mirrage, trace the shot, finer reticle, less overcorrection in natural tremble etc. but when milling a target I crank that reticle up. [/QUOTE]
