[QUOTE="Bang4theBuck, post: 2031997, member: 73596"] My suggestion would be to focus on getting a scope that has the reticle in the first focal plane (FFP) vs Second Focal Plane (SFP), and has turrets that you can dial. Just as important is a reticle that has subtensions (the little hash marks) with values assigned to them, so you can learn how to process Hold-offs or hold-overs. Every manufacturer has their own proprietary reticle, but you can usually find one that fits the bill. I am pretty partial to vortex, and I like the EBR 2 reticle. EBR 2c, EBR 2d, and EBR 7. I am an MOA guy, but if you are starting fresh with no particular attraction to MOA or MILRAD, do your homework and pay close attention to what the professional long range guys are using. Good luck.
