[QUOTE="Broz, post: 773855, member: 7503"] Well if you read the rest , and would have quoted the entire statement it is very clear. Not condescending at all...Maybe you need to read it again.? "The big argument about needing the reticle calibration on all powers is a preference. It is true, that FFP allows the reticle to be accurate on all powers. But please understand that some people have shot enough to realize they don't need that. I sure don't for the added $1800 in the price. I, [I]not in a rush now[/I], will make sure my scope is on 22X or if I do find that 22X is too much for the mirage that day I can wheel it back to 11X and know that the reticle is now reading x2. Not that hard for an option I hardly ever use and the added $1800". I could have said it a little better by adding for their type of shooting. Now what is so difficult about this? On full magnification my SFP reticle will function the same as a FFP reticle. If I do crank it down it reads twice the calibration. Which by the way allows twice the hold over from the reticle and something the FFP does not have to offer. I may not use that option much with my 100 moa of elevation plus the reticle. But some scopes with less built in elevation to dial sure could. [/QUOTE]
