[QUOTE="kcebcj, post: 1293158, member: 10391"] I have the Vortex HS LR 4-16 FFP on my main elk and deer rifle but going to swap it out for a SFP scope (not sure witch one yet) and here is why. Last season had a really good bull coming down a ridge in the timber. It was a rainy cloudy day just breaking daylight and he was about 300 yards so I needed no adjustment to the scope. Caught him in an opening and when I came down on him could see him quite well but could not see my cross hair in the poor light. I had the scope on 4 power (and I knew better) quickly cranked it to about 8 and when I got back on him all I saw was his rump disappear in the timber. The cross hair was good on 8 power! I really like the scope but with most FFP scopes on the lower powers the cross hair is really fine and great for working up loads and target shooting but in my opinion as a hunting scope the SFP is superior especially if you dial all shots like I do.
