[QUOTE="ScottCoulter36, post: 462648, member: 30202"] Trueblue, Why do recommend to go with the SFP? Most people's reviews I see say to go with the FFP. I currently have a Viper 6.5-20x50 Target Dot scope and have been very pleased with it thus far. However, to be honest with you, I only had a chance to shoot it a couple times before I had to go out of town to work, and I also can't find anywhere that will tell me whether it's SFP or FFP. Maybe you could enlighten me. And as for the original post, I've done tons and tons or research and have been looking through reviews and forums about the PST. For the money I don't think you can go wrong. However, most people, when comparing to the NXS, have said the NF has clearer glass and doesn't get that red tint to white objects. At the same time, you're looking at about 600 more for the same options in the NF. I've also been looking into Leupold's VX-7 and MK4's and those seem to be between the PST and NF, both with concerns to money and to reviews. I don't know if I helped out much, just wanted to lend my opinion that I've come up with so far. As of right now I'm personally leaning towards the PST, but constantly looking for someone to give me hard evidence to go another route. At some point you have to think if you are really getting that much more quality out of something versus the money you're spending. [/QUOTE]
