I have moved to a FFP optic on my main gopher and target 22 and I love it! Its a 4-16 and for everyday gopher shooting it sits somewhere around 8 power though for target or a real tricky gopher I will turn it up. The hashmarks are amazingly useful for adjusting for wind and are a great upgrade from the previous method of "hold a gopher left" or "aim about 2 inches right"
Only downside I see is it gives me false confidence that I can hit gophers way past the effective range of the cheap ammo I'm shooting. At least once an outing you will find me poking at a gopher over 200 yards away just to see if I can.
