[QUOTE="Kurtr, post: 26826, member: 194"] Ok on the puter so heres my take on ffp vs sfp. I shoot in (attempt) some tactical comps where the shooting is dynamic and changing with time limits so that is where the ffp comes into play when i am having to hold off i dont need to worry about what power i am on for using the reticle. If you have more time the sfp would work just fine and alot of guys use it to shoot way better than i can. On low powers all i have is a cross hair for but your not holding off when you are that close at full power if you are shooting teeny tiny targets i could see that as a problem but with the xlr reticle there an open center so i have had no problem but i am not shooting bench rest and most guys doing that all run fine reticles with sfp. Next you get into where your reticle is really calibrated when going sfp and half power and box testing the adjustments to make sure every thing is tracking properly. I would say right now is the golden age of rifle scopes for consumers. It used to be a few choices if you really wanted to twist turrets and go long. bushnell is not to be over looked they have stepped there game up huge they have an lrs offering that might fit your bill. In the end it is your choice what YOU like best not me or any one else what makes you happy and comfortable shooting with will do more for YOU than what I or any one else thinks. It comes down to user preference when stepping up to mid and top tier glass as they all work its just which one works best for YOU. i have a few different pieces of vortex gear from the big razor spotter to a cheaper nomad one pair of diamondback binos and the hs lr scope. i have not had a problem with any thing and the razor which to be expected is right there with all the top glass and any question i have had there customer service has been top notch. a few questions to help with your decision do you want/need illumination mills or moa capped windage or not ffp or sfp 50 or 44mm objective weight concerns? expectations of the glass what is the main function of this scope [/QUOTE]
