Hey hiders! First off I'm new to the forum as well as long range shooting. My max range that I've played at is only 600 so far. I'm looking to push out further so I'm having a 7mm stw built in hopes of bergers new 195 hrs being released. Currently using 7mm rem mag.
That being said my first "high end" to me optic was a vortex viper pst with ebr1 moa reticle in sfp. I had it in my head I was upgrading to a nightforce for years until this forum. Recently, shooting paper and steel at various ranges I've started realizing a want/need for ffp for ranging so I preordered the new vortex gen ii 4.5-27.
My question is if the horus type reticles get too "busy" with ffp at max magnification. I understand that sfp reticles are thinner at max mag than ffp but can anyone that uses a horus type ffp reticle chime in and tell me if all the holdover marks get to dark and clutter the fov. Specifically someone using a vortex ebr2b since that is the closest to the ebr 2c that I ordered. The max range I will be shooting is 1000-1200 for now. I apologize if this was a bit long winded lol. I've been trolling these forums forever and just wanted to make my question as clear as I could. I've learned a bunch from these forums and enjoy taking what I've learned here out and put to practice, Thanks!
