[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 72126, member: 10"] APB, FFP stands for "first focal plane" which means that the reticle in this scope is on the same focal plane as the actual target you see. Most scopes are not this way. What this does is keeps the reticle consistant dimensionally with the target when the scope magnification is increased or decreased. For example, the distance between the main crosshair and the first mil dot down is the same on 4x as it is on 16x. This makes the scope much more versitile as it can be used at closer range or very low light conditions where the low powers are better or you can crank things up to the top end for long range precision shooting. Very good system and one I wish all the scope makers would use. Good Shooting!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
