SFP scopes are a waste of time, while your still looking at all your charts for your different magnification settings I will already be at my animal taking photos.
For me, yes it is. I don't look at charts in the hunting field. But I memorize my hold overs before hand for my specific caliber and load before going afield. And I do know what 12" or 24" looks like in my scope using the animal's body cavity. It has worked very well for me for many years. Much like archery hunting, many pins on my bow only served to confuse me. Thus, I learned to use a single pin and use good field judgment. Same goes with all those reticle dots. But hey, that's my way and I don't put down yours. Whatever works for you .
