[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 54683, member: 412"] I don't like the "paper-towel tube view" of FFP's @ low power. One only really needs to understand that w/SFP's subtensions are still there, it's just that the value had doubled or tripled. For instance, a 6.5-20 w/MLR reticle has 1/2 and 1 MIL hashes, but only @ 20x. @ 10x, those marks are still there, but they're subtension represents 2x more realestate, @ 6.5x you can essentially double it again, not quite, but it'll get you close enough to work, especially if one is dialling elevation and only using hashes for wind. Slim, use your friggin' turrets! [/QUOTE]
