[QUOTE="Vleder, post: 455929, member: 27841"] Thanks for all the replies, I think that FFP is the way to go, to keep it simple as mentioned. The Menace is in my budget, I would love to get a NF or Vortex PST or the like but scopes are very expensive in South Africa, eg the Menace 5-25x50 is approx $450 in US but is approx R6 000 ($882 at exchange rate of 6.8/1), most other decent scopes are approx double your prices. Rifles are even more expensive, my Howa 24" Varminter in 308 heavy barrel with laminate stock was $1 618 (R11 000, again at 6.8/1 exchange rate) compared to approx $767 (from albeammo.com). The FFP will allow me to zero, range with rangefinder and hold over using reticle at any maginfication, simple. Which reticle would you guys recommend? The Enhanced MD or the ML16 skeleton? [/QUOTE]
