I am also learning more and more about ranging critters via the reticle sub tensions, in which it is also nice to have zero variance. I guess if a guy has a calculator or an app on his phone handy, plus time to punch in all the numbers then SFP would be fine. I'm just too simple minded.

I am pretty much totally converted over to 6x42s now though, both leupold and SWFA so that magnification variance is a non-issue for me. One of these days's I'll force my tight ass to pick up a S&B PMII in FFP.


Don't try and crunch #s.

If you are holding wind then ensure you dial the zoom ring to max.

It's a very simple thing to do.

The bonus is a usable reticle at low power and in low light.

I am old enough to remember your old user name and how you used to be proud of posting from WY. grin
