[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1019390, member: 10291"] I think the choice is personal preference and understand the benefits of the FFP for tactical shooting having taken advantage of the constant reticle calibration when shooting competitively. Having tried both, for hunting, I prefer the SFP. When I am using low power, usually in low light or heavier cover a heavier reticle helps, the FFP gets thinner. When I am shooting at long range I prefer a finer reticle for precision. The FFP gets thicker. Overall, the effects are opposite of what I desire. For my style of hunting I like myG7 NF 5.5x22 (SFP) with a 600 yard velocity reticle. For long range shots I generally use my turret for precise shot placement. For tighter work at closer ranges(under 600 yards but still requiring elevation adjustsments) my velocity reticle calibrates with the scope set at 10x, my prefered closer range power, and still maintains the constant reticle thickness. This set up has proven very fast and versatile for me. As an added benefit I can save the added cost of a FFP feature and get other desired options like zero stop with the savings.IMO [/QUOTE]
