first & second focal plane

[archer8524]

Can someone please explain vortex's first and second focal plane reticle options on the Viper HS LR rifle scopes? I have been looking at this scope for my 270. , but i'm not sure witch one would work best for me.

Hey where's BB. He will chime in here and explain it for you most likely.

uhh, I was out labor-daying.



Rather than write it all out, I like this concise explanation (Except for the "best for" lists):

Not sure if you saw this vid yet but vortex breaks it down pretty well.
