[QUOTE="Jim Maloney, post: 18905, member: 1683"] sakofan, It's all about giving people what they want. Most guys expect to see a RFP reticule in a scope, it's what us American are used to. IOR was geting a lot of returns because the reticules weren't what people were expecting. That is what prompted the change to RFP reticules. FFP reticules don't work well in higher power variables either. Say the 6-24x50 for example, if it were FFP the reticule would barly be visible at 6x and would look like a telephone pole at 24x. FFP reticule can be special ordered in any IOR scope but I would hate to see how much $$$ that would cost. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] Jim [/QUOTE]
