You might want to spend some time behind a 1.5-6x42 Euro scope in FFP before you tell the world they suck for hunting scopes.
I agree with you there. I have one of these, and it does work brilliantly for short and medium ranges, daylight and dark. Hunting is all I use it for.
Mind you, I do have a mix of FFP (including fixed of course) and SFP scopes, so I have no particular dog in this fight. One advantage of the FFP variable that I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned is the fact that it wont change POI with magnification changes, something inherent to the SFP design (though minimised in really good scopes).
