I had the scope for a few years, it is a good scope, but not small. At all!
It is bright and is a great fit for a designated hog gun (which mine was.) I recommend the triangle reticle rather than the mil dot, especially for moving targets. The Accupoints are great scopes, definitely a best buy in the low light hunting category.

That's what I've heard about the weight. But Im not sold on the triangle. I get the quickness of it, but seems limited compared to mildot for hold overs. I would probably use the hold overs less in my shooting opportunities, but like to have the flexibility....
On another note, is a FFP scope worth $225 more than its cousin in SFP? For hunting under 300 yds..

No, not even close. Inside 300 yards (and if you have a range finder) FFP is a pain since many reticles are uselessly small on the bottom and/or ridiculously large on the top.
The triangle isn't as good at hold-overs, but if you do a mil dot, be aware that Accupoint mil dot reticles are very thick (which is why I sold my 5-20 Accupoint with mil dot.)

Hey koshkin??
How is the Vortex 2.5-10 working on the 300 BLK? And do you really think its worth the extra $200 + for FFP
over SFP?? Im really thinking about just getting the SFP and saving the
$$ considering Im shooting the majority of shots
under 100 yds Thanks for your input |

There are two 2.5-10x scopes in the Vortex PST line. The 2.5-10x32 is FFP only. The 2.5-10x44 is SFP only. These are two very different designs. I am a huge fan of the smaller 2.5-10x32 and I do not like the larger 2.5-10x44 very much. The smaller scope has the more sophisticated optical system. ILya
