First Focal Plane vs. Second Focal Plane with Ryan Cleckner: Which Scope is Right for You?
Ryan Cleckner from Gun University provides an expert breakdown of First Focal Plane (FFP) versus Second Focal Plane (SFP) rifle scopes. He explains that FFP scopes magnify the reticle and target image proportionally, making reticle measurements accurate at all magnifications, ideal for precision shooting. SFP scopes, where the reticle size is constant, are often preferred for hunting and low-light conditions due to reticle visibility at lower powers, and are generally less expensive.
