Just dial with a reliable 2nd focal and be done with it. If I have time to range the animal, I have an extra 3 seconds to dial my dope. Hold over rets are for playing games, not shooting them.
Wind and spotting shots are best done with the reticle...
3 posts in a a row and I can't find anything to disagree with. if I have some money on black friday I will pony up on a 3x9 and see how I like it, one point you kinda touch on is the fine sub tensions. being a MOA guy, I think MOA is a tuffer sell in FFP, I think the mil spacing generally works better for FFP. if you want to have a MOA reticle in FFP you really need to go 2 MOA spacing which IMO isn't ideal.
