Does anyone know if this is a first or Second Focal Plane Reticle type scope???

You are obviously schooled a little about sniper scopes, and if you're looking to put this on a gun where that would matter (not an airsoft gun) then you are looking at the wrong scope. Search for Super Sniper scopes available through SWA for the cheapest 'sniper grade' real scopes.

Hey J R I am glad you saved yourself some grief. The scope in question is for 22lr rim fire stuff with little recoil if any. I get scared when I handle the scope ruff as i got a bad one out the box that would not zero. Better to get the ones made for ,223/5.56. Nikon makes scopes for those caliber guns with a BDC reticle

Wish I could tell ya. I threw out the box a while back & there are no indications on the scope itself.

Yes.the why I see it is,this is a crosshairs first,red dot second optic for me,although both work flawlessly,I mainly purchased this scope to use the crosshairs and really only use the dot in lowlight situations.FYI,the dot is quite bright in daylight hours.

No, its just a basic 2 lenses scope. Its a great scope at 500 yards. You get what you pay for and i think it was only about $45

You do not want this scope! It is bad. The retacles are both cockeyed. Won't zero in! I sent it back and got a Nikon scope! Very pleased with it. Just bought the rings for rails. All fits well!! Hope this answers your question!!

I have this scope on my 223. It is a 2nd focal plane reticle and the mil dots are only at the correct spacing when at 9x magnification. The 9x position is noted on the zoom dial with a small dot. I drew a 10cm grid on a board at 100 meters to verify. 3.9" at 328'.

I had both this barlow and the firstscope, yes it will fit and will work, but the image will be dimmer because of the way the barlow lens functions and the small aperture size of the scope. For moon gazing or other bright celestial bodies it should do nicely, but it isn't suitable for bringing into view very faraway objects that appear small and dim in the firstscope. If I remember correctly, Jupiter looked good too, but Saturn wasnt visible in my corner of the sky before I sold the little scope. Good luck!

I believe it's in the first focal plane. Optics are quite good for the price. I was shooting 3 inch groups at 150 yards with my AR15.

This is not a scout scope. It is equivalent to a VX 2 scope but with a different crosshair.

It's a 4 plex reticle. No mil dot, no hash marks of any kinds. Looks like 4 arrows pointing towards dead center. The glass is flawless, the light absorption is awesome, the turrets are great. Being that Redfield was bought out by Leupold it is made by their standards but not with their price. The Objective Diameter is pretty big. I had to buy Ultra High rings to mount to my AR. I'm pretty pleased with the scope. I would like a mil dot reticle but for the price it's pretty solid. Anything else I can help you with?

Yes,that is a mistake. The scope comes with a one piece mount clearly marked M-308 Contact Nikon for the correct mount!

I have one of each. The first focal plane is $950.00 and the second is $750.00

My scope had the same thing. I sent it back and they sent me an upgraded scope.

Yes the Nikon I got was the BDC reticle. This was a excellent scope I bought.

John, to the best of my understanding (and I'm no expert) this is a 2nd focal plane scope. The reticle does not change size as magnification changes. If that isn't an issue for you I can assure you this is a fine optic. I've put hundreds of rounds through my Varminter (AR platform) using varying magnifications and I love the way this scope performs. Just one enthusiast's opinion.

I believe this is a Second Focal Plane scope which makes ranging only possible at one specific power. This Millet is a poor choice because of this. A Mildot Master Card is best used with a First Focal Plane scope. Some long range tactical courses INSIST that you show up with a FFP Mil/Mil scope. You simply can not do what is required by the course for drills on ranging, hold overs, and hold offs with out a FFP scope. Look at Falcon Menace scopes for $449. They are FFP and even better glass. Search. There is only one USA dealer for Falcon.
