[QUOTE="SavageHunter11, post: 1617736, member: 100006"] If your willing to spend S&B money I would find anything with a Horus reticle (H59, Tremor, etc) or something similar and learn to use that. It doesn't have a hash line for every hundred yards like I think you are looking for (those generally are inaccurate anyways) but it has a grid system that's easy to calculate your hold over values. Example, mine has a hash every .5 mil and I zero at 100 so on my 280 Ackley Improved my reticle holdovers are: [LIST] [*]0.5Mil hash: 234 meters [*]1.0Mil hash: 317 meters [*]1.5Mil hash: 392 meters [*]2.0Mil hash: 458 meters [*]2.5Mil hash: 522 meters [/LIST] So if i need to shoot at 475 meters I hold just about half way between my 2.0 and 2.5 mil hash. I know this isn't exactly what you want but I used to be like you and want BDC style reticles and a friend convinced me to try a Mil style reticle and i never looked. Just my 2 cents though, take it how ever you want. [/QUOTE]
