[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 158962, member: 704"] They both have their advantages. I think I have four first focal plane and maybe two dozen second focal plane. On my AR in 223 I like the second focal plane used with Strelok+. The reticle is bullet drop and I can change the yardage by changing the power setting. I wanted a new lightweight toy so two days ago I ordered a Ruger American Predator in 308 which has a short (18 inch) barrel. A Vortex Strike Eagle will go on that rifle. With the rail on the rifle and good tactical rings I would guess at times I will switch to one of my extra scopes which is 4.5 to 14X, or maybe even my Fast fire III. I don't think there are any hard and fast rules except have fun. I have shot a couple of deer with a 22 Hornet, and prairie dogs with a 300 mag and even a couple with a 458 Lott. Oh ya, and a couple with a 50/140 Sharps. [/QUOTE]
