I have 1 FFP reticle that i use for hunting. The only problem with FFP reticles is that they do the opposite of what a hunter wants them to do when the power is changed--they get smaller as the power is lowered and larger when the power is increased. I don't mind the 1 i have as i have just learned to deal with it. Of course the big advantage to the FFP is that the stadia subtensions remain the same no matter what power you're on. Here is the 1 i use on an AR-15 that's been recal'd to the trajectory of my load, and is my favorite of all the scopes and ballistic reticles i've ever used, and believe it or not it's a 22 Long Rifle scope-- http://www.rapidreticle.com/22lr3-9x32.htm

I have a 2.5 X 10 FFP and I like it for hunting, it is a little tough to shoot real small groups with it because the reticle does cover alot of the target. I wound up not buying another I got a Nikon Tactical on the 2nd FP
