Buy recommendations SFP vs FFP for Hunting

Setting up a rifle specifically for hunting but all the scopes I have are first focal plane.

Aside from the reticle differences, does the adjustable parallax of the FFP scope drastically hinder the hunting experience, or is it becoming more common to use these?

I'm looking for a 3-15 option and there are more appealing scopes with FFP.

Keeping an eye on this thread. I'm also going to hijack this post a bit.

I've been building out a Tikka T3X CTR with a MDT Worker stock. I'm probably going to be getting this for the optic. I have multiple prisms from Vector, but I was wondering if anyone has put their higher end long-range glass on a build before. The cheaper prisms ($200 CAD) are comparable to $500 glass and I wonder if this is similar for the higher priced options from them.
