Rifle Scopes USMC reticle?

[Big_Country]

Can someone tell me down to each detail which scope the USMC is using. Especially if it's FFP or SFP. I know they use to use a fixed 10x scope. Now that the adjustable powered scopes are out there, I am wondering what they are using and how they are estimating range etc.

Thanks a million,

Depends on the scope. The Schmidt Benders that we had were all gen2xr1

How many scope's are there ffs? I only know of 2 contracted scope's the USMC is using the PH and the S&B. The way you are saying it they function differently?

5.56 DMR rifles were still running leupolds when I got out a couple years ago. At least the ones that 1st LAR furnished us with were. Your question was pretty general. That's why I said depends.
