[QUOTE="JTComfort, post: 2526091, member: 103514"] FFP for sure you will not regret - when using it to estimate range or in tandem w/a Kestrel, your game will be changed. Having shot both a 4-16 (learning) and a 5-25 PST (first season production class PRS) for long range shooting, the 4-16 is a marginal performer at 1000 yards. Even in the best conditions, clarity and overall magnification make it a challenge (I shoot .308) to make consistent hits on anything smaller than IPSC silhouettes. 5-25 is a better choice beyond 700 yards and a Viper PST can get it done. If you hunt a lot and often at the ranges you stated, lesser magnification in a slightly better optic (even 12X?) may prove to suit your purpose even better and be close to a wash price wise.
