[QUOTE="Fin-addictions, post: 1328087, member: 85831"] SFP for hunting for me, FFP for targets. In hunting situations, if I'm taking a long shot I have time. I'm never going to shoot on anything but high power on game, so my Subtensions are going to work perfectly on either FFP or SFP. I don't regularly hunt with the same rifles I target shoot with. I like to get away from the roads and I'm not carrying my heavy target rifles in the back country. This means lighter rifles that will do everything from close range timber to long range canyon shots. With the SFP, I can still see my reticle easily even at low power under the dark canopy of trees. If taking a long range shot, I'm dialing my elevation. I use TMOA reticles so I can hold wind, but at max power everything subtends. When target shooting I'm often shooting in warmer weather were mirage can become an issue, so I like the ability to back off my power to reduce the mirage. With FFP, my subtensions still work. I still dial elevation, but hold wind. Works for me. [/QUOTE]
