[QUOTE="jraulsten, post: 2758222, member: 96652"] As long as you are comparing apples to apples there should not be any difference. As far as I know, the only difference is in reticle placement within the scope. If the difference goes beyond that, say for instance the FFP scope has more parts, then I would say statistically there is a higher chance of failure. I've had all kinds of mid to high end scopes and I can tell you they all fail. Ironically I've never had a failure with a higher end "V" scopes (which may just be luck) but have had 3 major failures with some much higher end scopes. Of course they saw much more use than the others. I'm not sure which is more frustrating, having to send a scope in more frequently or waiting to get one back from Austria in 3 months 🤔 [/QUOTE]
