    Tactical High Powered Scope Confusion

    In the 'Buy, Sell or Trade' yesterday @Beetroot posted this in regards to a high magnification scope for sale:

    Not saying the scopes don't perform but the options available now in the $1000-$2000 range as worlds apart from what used to be available.
    So that leads to my question of "Then what tactical scope specs does cut it in 2020?".
    As I was of the opinion that a 2nd FP was better for hunting as with 1st FP the reticle is too thin at low power to see against an animal and too thick at high power...
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.
