What is the difference between this PST 6/24 and this one Vortex Viper Pst 6-24x50 Ffp Riflescope W/ Ebr-1 Moa Reticle - Black Matte - Pst-624f1-a

The prior two answers are correct. As to the first focal plane versus second, this is a personal preference. FFP is useful in tactical situations where the shooter may need to range targets on unknown range courses, but is not an absolute requirement.
656207
The difference is the FFP ( first focal plain ) The FFP is more expensive and you can look it up for an explaination
656208
This one is a second focal plane vs the other Is a first or front focal plane.
656209
Front Focal Plane means the scope rectical is on the first plane. When you range the rectical will be the same size in each magnification. Thus making it easier to range. Non FFP rectical changes per magnification and will need additional equation.

I bought some UTG scope rings for it..BUT I wound up going with the 6-24x60..The new sniper style rifle,If you can split the difference of $120..00..It is WELL worth the money man!!!

It's more a matter of the type of optic you want for your own personal needs. Go to the Vortex website and check out all their optics.

I think he answered your question. The back piece (magnifier) flips over to the side allowing you to use your iron sights through the front eotech circle/dot. Just a pice of my .02cents I Love this combo! Though I have heard great things about the vortex magnifier and may give it a shot. It's over 200 less :/ good luck!

Amazon needs to update this webpage listing with the correct model number to end any confusion between ordering the MRAD or the MOA model. When I ordered mine, I received the Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 FFP MRAD (PST-624F1-M) model which was exactly what I wanted. Amazon's customer service is the best and if you do order the wrong one, they'll make it right. If you really want to make sure you order the right one, I'd call Amazon's customer service center and order it over the phone. Type in "customer service" in their search bar and a list will show.

Every Vortex Viper Pst Scope has a manufacture's part number. This one is PST-416F1-M. You will notice that the letter after the 416 is an "F". This will signify that it is a First focal plane scope. If the letter is an "S", then it will be a second focal plane. The price is also an indicator. The first focal plane is much more expensive than the second because of a more complex construction. The crosshairs are etched on the lense, not painted.

I believe the clarity is better. I like the quick throw lever and the scope looks better on an ar than the mtac in my opinion. Ironically i bought this scope to replace a burris mtac. As far as the main benefit goes, the ffp reticle, do your own research to determine if its the thing for you. From a tactical perspective ffp is the way to go. Bottom line, I love it, and would def recommend.

For that scope, you will need to use Vortex's #3 on the objective, then for the ocular you would use Vortex's #5 cover. The only thing you may need to think about is the ocular, because of where the rheostat is located. I would consider using Butler Creek's cover.

I don't have a P series 4-12, but have the lower magnification, I believe 2 -7 or something like that. (sorry at work not at home where I can look). The reticle on my P scope is much thicker than my M series scope, which is much better at the higher magnification. And really like the BDC circles as they don't cover the target. I wish I had another M series with lower mag versus the P series I have now. Love the M series scope. has quickly become my favorite.

The difference is the type of sight grids you will be looking at through the scope. The $101. model has what is called "Range Finder" the $114. model has the P4 Sniper grids. Depends on how or what you are shooting as well as your preference. I prefer the P4 Sniper grid myself. If you are not familiar with the two, you may want to go to a dealer and check them out so as you will be satisfied with the one you get.

Differences are Tactical has 30mm tube vs. 1 in tube, Resettable Zero, Mill Dot reticle. Worth the price difference if you use features, But weighs 6 oz. more, Both fine scopes for the money. I have standard and wish I bought tactical but still satisfied.

Amazon offers both scopes. Mine is the mil-dot. It has an adjustable brightness illuminated green and red reticle. I like the quick release on it. Worth the money.

It seems as though everyone has been as specific as possible with the answer. Is their a particular question about the scope series you have. Vortex makes several models?

I'm unsure of the size in moa, but it has a few options. One is a circle similar to EOTech, another is single similar to Aimpoint, other is a crosshair style.

The glass on the NF is better but not a lot better. I use both scopes and I'm very happy with the Bushnell. If you can do the price on NF FFP F1 and your OK with 15x for your top end then I would recommend the Nightforce F1. We sale both scopes. Mike @ CSTACTICAL our # is 916.670.1103.

I haven't tried both, but I don't really think you'll find that much difference. Check the Devilbiss site for details on both guns. Most likely one is just a slightly updated version of the other.
