I agree, he doesn't need a FFP scope, however the Diamond back Tactical is a good entry level scope with options for different hunting conditions. The only thing missing is a zero stop and when it's on 4x the reticle is very small and can be difficult to see. For the money it is adaptable to several different types of hunting, I have 2 of them, one is on a 6.5 PRC and the other is on a .300wsm both have not failed me. As I said, for the money, you get options!
