[QUOTE="pwrdbycotn, post: 1804337, member: 29096"] Because for long range hunting, the reticle can become so large, when zoomed in, that it covers up the animal. Due to this, most FFP scope use an very thin reticle, and this can present problems at low light in close range situations, or when quick target acquisition is needed. Besides, most of us are using ballistic software and dialing for shots that are further than our "comfort zone" (my own term that I used for shots that don't require dialing). I'm not going to use hold-overs for long shots, so having a reticle that stays the same proportion through the zoom range isn't important. Having a reticle that doesn't cover up the animal is very important, though. [/QUOTE]
