[QUOTE="rocknwell, post: 719256, member: 35199"] Ok so I have some follow-up questions. Regardless of MOA or MIL reticles, how does using the reticle for ranging work in regards to SFP and FFP in a variable power scope? Tell me if I am understanding this correctly: if I am ranging a distance target, I would most likely be using the highest magnification on the scope. is ranging on an SFP scope designed to work only on the highest setting? What if I jump a deer at 25 yards and it starts to run? that's too close to be using full magnification. i'd want to have the lowest mag setting for something that close. can ranging be done on different mag settings? I assume this would take a considerable amount of practice/shooting to figure all this out. I like the simple concept of ranging and calculating using the reticle, but does this become considerably more complicated with SFP/variable power scopes? [/QUOTE]
