    It's not really a suitable scope for HFT but that's because its 50mm objective makes the depth-of-field too small. As you cannot adjust your scope at all during the competition you need to have as great a range of distances in focus as possible and 44mm is the normal maximum. Similarly, too large a magnification reduces the depth of field and few people will use greater than 10x. For as long as I can remember the classic HFT scope has been a fixed 10x40 but there's now a new reasonably-priced 10x32 that might be popular in the future. That does not mean that zooms scopes can't be used and I used either a 3-12x40 or 4.5-15x44 scope for the bulk of my HFT comps.

    Of course, if you really meant FT rather than HFT then you can ignore all the above.
    Also, with maximum ranges of 55 yards and 45 yards respectively, neither really qualifies as 'long range'
