What are ya'lls thgouths on these or one of these? I don't have anywhere nearby that has these so I am having to buy online without handling one. So all the help I can get is appreciated. Thanks. </div></div>
Out of those scopes I would have to go with the PA FFP. As of now it seems to track accurately between 50 and 100 yards. Mil Dots seem to be fairly close and the glass quality is better than my Mueller APT which is also another great scope esp for the $150 I payed for it new. I have yet to take my PA FFP out to 300 yards, but will be doing so when I can get a nice calm day.
The Mueller APT has been used for a few years and has been exceptional out to 225 yards. I did not have a canted base on my last rifle so I was unable to dial much further. It tracked well and always held and returned to zero.
My only complaint about both scopes are:
Mueller has mushy turrets with a picky eye box at higher magnification and an AO that is not very ideal for field use.
PA FFP has better turrets, but has a VERY tight eye box at all magnification.
Both of these scopes seem to be great for the money. The Mueller I am confident when using it on a centerfire rifle such as .308, but the PA I would only keep on a rimfire even though it is rated for .308 it just seems the eye box really limits this scope.
