There are two versions while both are FFP, the MOA has a space in the reticle with dot in center. Mil has a solid crosshair. I am very happy with the SWFA scopes I own.While the SS are great the HD models are even better. To date have had no issues with any of them. SS 10x, SS 12x, SS 3-15 , long discontinued HD 1-4, HD 1-6, HD 5-20 illum. Considering a HD 10x and a few more 3-15s as well as at least one more 5-20. Last edited by Azshooter; 07/12/19.

I have one and prefer the FFP version as the SFP crosshair with the tiny dot IMO are a bit too fine for anything but varminting or targets. I forgot I also have a HD 3-9......

I am also plagued with needing fat reticles for my old eyes. I also just found out I bought a SWFA ultra light last year and forgot. But I generally like second focal plane better for wide reticles. I have no SWFA FFPs, but some of my USO and IOR scopes do and are unusable on low power, as the reticle disappears. When your memory is bad enough, you can hide your own Easter eggs.

Works like a charm out to 750 yards (which is the length of the field I hunt). One problem for you though - it weighs around 2lbs. For the type of hunting I do I really am not concerned with weight. My current rifle/scope combo is around 14lbs. Don Speed Kills - With the right bullet.

I have a SS 3-15 on my heavy .260. It works for me. Yes! Love that scope!
