I thought you said second focal plane scopes are 100% worthless. LMFAO!
Feel free to quote where I said exactly that. I’ve killed more in a single week with SFP scopes than a lot of “hunters” will kill in their lifetime. For medium to long range use SFP introduces potential issues that do not need to be there.
I’ve killed a bunch of animals with scopes on muzzleloaders that never had a single round put on paper. I’ve killed deer after mounting a scope without ever firing a shot before killing the animal. I’ve killed them with iron sights, peep sights, BSA’s, Leupolds, Vortex, Zeiss, Swaro, etc, etc, etc.
So what. Because it can hit a 12” target at 50 paces it’s “good”. No. A scope is supposed to steer bullets correctly and consistently. A toaster is supposed to toast my bread. If it burns, I’m not happy just because the bread is edible.
I know a guy in Britain that earned his living as a professional game manager for 20 years. He was under contract to keep the muntjac, roe deer, red deer and sitka within carrying capacity on over 20 estates. If he failed to meet his quotas he would lose his contracts and not get paid. He was required under those contracts to kill over 600 of the various deer per year and did so every year. I guess he didn't know what he was doing or shoot enough or kill enough because he used a Tikka 695 chambered in .270 topped with a Swarovski scope to meet his quota's.
