/\_As with all reticles, thickness is the difference. If you're shooting iron, thickness doesn't matter, paper on the other hand, you'll need to look through and find the thinnest reticle you can. Another thing to decide is do you want round dots, oval-egg shaped dots or hash marks/hash lines. My scope has round dots and are abit thick, good for hunting and plinking. I had a Falcon Menace with hash lines which were super thin. Very good for paper, not so good for hunting. Reason was the the mil-hash line reticle would disappear in a dark colored back background. As when shooting a target on a black pine tree trunk.
Now comes the turrets, do you want to miss match the turrets and reticle, as MOA turrets and mil reticle (cheapest) or use matching .1 mil turrets with mil reticle or MOA turrets with MOA reticle, you'll need a mint for matching MOA/MOA. You can reticle range find with a MIL/MIL scope without the math required for MOA scopes or at least 99.999% less math, you just add a Zero, don't make sense, but it works. You can do some cyber long range tactical reticle range finding practice (500 meters +) using MOA/MOA, MOA/MIL, MIL/MIL SFP or FFP in variable/fixed power using meters or yards ranged to the target. I prefer the MIL/MIL FFP, ranging using meter range card because no math/calculator required, can do in my head. You may want to attend the classes also available in this simulation: Shooter Ready, a free demo, saves you some $$$ and ¢.

http://www.shooterready.com/mildemo.html Click 'Stage' [A], click reticle type, click 10X, 20X SFP or 20X FFP, press space bar or click trigger to shoot!
I don't know your budget, but you may want to look at the Falcon Menace. http://swfa.com/Falcon-Menace-4-14x44-Tactical-30mm-Riflescope-P47408.aspx This is an outstanding, low priced, entry level tactical and is capable of most all tactical shooting you may grow into. http://www.falconoptics.com/pdf/FFP Series Manual.pdf

This is my Tactical CZ452 Varmint in a Boyds Tacticool stock. I'm using a Bushnell Elite 4200 Tactical and it's a good medium priced entry level tactical scope, also.

Good luck in making your choice, I'm recommending not going cheap, you'll haft to upgrade later by doing so, in the long run or should I've said "The long shot?"
