Sure, but to the point of FFP mentioned in the OP… if your zero distance or caliber isn’t silly, anything inside of ~200yd should be point and click anyways… a good 5.56/6/6.5/.30 load out of a decent barrel length zeroed at 200 has a max rise of probably 2”, give or take.

In practical use, FFP only adds needless complexity/weight/cost in a 1-6 because something you’d be using 1-5x for with a typical caliber is probably close enough that holdovers aren’t critical... It’s not like a 3-18x or 5-25x where you might be looking at something 600-800yds away using a middling 12x and ballistic drop is a few feet so you need that calibrated reticle.

I'm still rocking a Burris 1-4x. I can't afford to keep up.

I can’t think of a single thing about the VCOG that’s better.  It’s significantly heavier and larger, has a worse reticle selection and illumination.  What’s to like in that comparison?
