[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 782950, member: 35183"] No one was suggesting anything about a do it all scope. The question is: When can I benefit from having a FFP scope ? Most people are familiar with SFP scopes since that is the default market offering. Having said that, how many people have the fancy SFP reticles ? Probably 95% if not more has some sort of basic plex reticle. The SFP scopes with the fancy reticles are about as rare as the FFP's since they come in scopes with massive price tags. Then when you add target turrets and illumination, the bill is looking pretty scary. So in my opinion, if you are cheap, then the top of the line Vortex Viper is probably not going to be on your list. If you want good turrets and illumination, the Viper PST FFP is probably starting to look pretty decent. If your shooting tends to be unpressurized, you probably will want to keep the extra $200 in your wallet. The $830 and $900 I paid for my scopes is chump change to the heros in this thread. [/QUOTE]
