[QUOTE="Toddxusmc, post: 1594428, member: 108726"] Every optic I have is SFP. I have seriously looked into FFP optics but the problem I run into is when I get to the lower 35% of the power range the reticle becomes basically a dot. This may be due to the fact that I am so used to seeing a full reticle or it could be I am in the transition area of my bi focal corrective eyeglasses. I think the above replies do cover most of the pros and cons. I think the FFP while useful in some situations is just something “new and improved” the optics companies offer to generate sales. After all if you have a great Leupold or Vortex(or other great brand) SFP optic on your rifle now, you wouldn’t buy a new optic to replace it unless it offers something new or different. [/QUOTE]
