[QUOTE="aushunter1, post: 1712704, member: 57533"] The thing I like about FFP scopes is that the reticle hash mark/subtension values do not change as you change the magnification like they do on a SFP scope. So if you aren't dialing in the scope for every shot & using the hash marks for holdover/under & windage then I see that is an advantage. Obviously the reticle enlarges as you go up the magnification range but unless you are shooting at squirrels at 500+yards then I don't see that as a problem. Imo, try to get into a store & get your hands on one & have a look through a FFP scope, change the magnification from lowest to highest & see if you like it. Its a hard thing to do on the internet & best 1st hand! [/QUOTE]
