Please explain in detail how a feature you don't like but many others want is a fail?

If you had even briefly looked at the MK 4 HD product line you would have seen there is a 2.5-10 with SFP reticle.

I prefer 2ndFP but others don't. To be fair I don't have any interest in any of the announced MK 4HD offerings but Leupold is damn sure going to sell a shit load to shooters who like FFP at those prices.
you of all people know ffp is a fail for that scope. Will people buy it. Yeah. But most people don’t shoot much or only at a gun range. You know this.


Looking at the reticle, it looks like it will show up better than some on low power with FFP. I've killed [bleep] really close on low power with FFP. Not rocket science.
Killed a few deer last season with a SS3-9x on 5x and never wanted for anything else, but I do prefer illuminated on a FFP reticle when in low power in thick woods.

Timber is my thing, have done ok without illuminated but it’s nice to hit the illumination and get that nice Christmas tree triangle at low power. Usually I just kill the buck and forget to hit the illumination.

15 yds if I remember correctly , no illumination, heavy timber 4x ffp.
