I think that is correct.

You should verify on a grid though if you're going to use hold-over at different magnifications for long range. The markings on the power ring aren't ultra precise. I would scribe the ring at the exact right spots. You can do the same thing to use the bottom post on a duplex scope for hold-over. It's crude and backwards because you have to zoom out as you get farther out, but it works.

You can do a pretty slick job of having range markers on the zoom dial and eliminate dope charts and stuff too. A SFP scope can be used in some cool ways that a FFP can't.

What glass out there these days is comparable to the Zeiss Conquest of the early 2000s. To me, those scopes have been sufficient to above average resolution and hell for solid. Just a touch on the heavy side.

I will say, it’s odd that someone loves both Leupy and SWFA. Leupold has a reputation of being overly delicate in many hunting circles.
