Well thanks to A few of you on here it looks like I'll be going with a FFIII. I just ordered a 336 base for it. Now I just need to get the FF coming smile

I think the 8 MOA dot actually burns up a little more juice than the 3 MOA also. I'm not nearly as good about cutting mine off when I get back to the truck as I should be and it cost me. From now on I'm replacing the battery in mine at the beginning of turkey season each year.

I have the 8 moa and haven't had any problems. I like the quick acquisition of the 8 moa but you can do no wrong as long as its a FF

It wont matter, you will sell it within two years. Its going to be a personal preference.


Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.
