    Posted: July/02/2011 at 10:54
In my previous post I was leaning towards the Trijicon 5x20 but after some research I am liking the  Vortex Viper PST 4-16X50
 
Here is my question
 
I know the reticle changes sizes with the FFP model
 
If I were to go with the second plane focal model what would the reticle look like constantly
 
This
 
or this

I agree the reticle will look large and having owned both scopes I say buy the  5-20x50 Super Sniper instead.  I find the accupoint a better hunting scope than the Vortex because the illumination in the accupoint is far superior to any other illuminated system out there in my opinion.  The Accupoint only has  50 moa of internal adjustment so not a ultra long range scope but  great glass and very nice feel to the controls.  Between the Accupoint and the Vortex I would buy the Accupoint unless you plan to shoot past  about 600 yds then hands down buy the 5-20 SS .
