[QUOTE="7magcreedmoor, post: 1152704, member: 48559"] I also have both types. For me, at lowest mag the graduated portion is very small but still forms a basic "cross" framed by the thick outer segments. For a shot where I am close enough to have the mag backed down like that, I don't need to use the marks anyway, so it's not an issue. When the light is fading and I have to back the power down a bit to keep enough light coming through to be useful, I don't have to find a specific power setting to use the subtensions, just turn the ring until I can see well enough to ID the target and shoot. With my SFP rigs I have to go to a specific setting and stay there, then not forget the math for that setting. While either scope can be used effectively, my chance to screw it up is greater with SFP. [/QUOTE]
