[QUOTE="Shumba1, post: 2749663, member: 113854"] For the higher magnification hunting scopes, do you end up dialing for elevation, or dial up the scope full power so that the reticle subtensions are correct? I believe in SFP scopes the subtensions are only correct on the highest power? I think I prefer a SFP scope, but for long range hunting, I would like the subtensions to be accurate at any magnification that I'm on. For this reason, I'm thinking of going for a first focal plane scope. The downside of FFP is that the reticle seems really small on the lower magnification. Anyway, curious why you prefer the SFP for LR hunting? I currently use a Leupold 6x-HD 3-18x 50mm with Firedot plex reticle. I just dial for distance. Wanting to buy a new Nightforce for target and LR Hunting, but I'm torn between SFP and FFP. By the way, all my hunting scopes are now illuminated. Have shot a lot of game are first or last light and it really makes a difference. Thanks [/QUOTE]
