[QUOTE="Scot E, post: 567952, member: 10832"] That scope is SFP. The center cross hairs won't change zero with a power change although some scopes, even expensive ones from time to time, will do this. Suffice to say they SHOULD NOT change POI with a power change if the scope is designed and working properly. However, the remainder of that reticle will change POI with a power change, which is a mess! One of the many reasons I like FFP scopes for any ranging style reticle. NF and Zeiss have this great concept in their drop compensation reticles but they put them all in SFP scopes which just makes no sense to me at all. Way too many things to keep track of and way too big of a chance of a mistake! IMO the MIL or MOA ranging reticles setup in .5 MIL or 2 MOA hash marks in an FFP scope is the very best concept for a drop compensation reticle. Just wish I could get more companies to agree! :) [/QUOTE]
