[QUOTE="pandjbox, post: 1019989, member: 86112"] I recently bought a Brunton 3x9x40 Echo rifle scope with the BDC reticle. So far I like the scope however I think the BDC MOA values for the three bars implied by the scope literature are way wrong. After calling Brunton (no help partly because they are out of the business now) and quite a bit of head scratching, I put a yard stick out at 100 yds and measured the distance from the cross hairs to each bar. I measured approximately Bar 1 - 3in, Bar 2 - 11in and Bar 3 - 23in which about double what the literature implies. Does any one out there have better values or a better way to measure the values? I know in the end I'll do the shooting but I'm hoping good values and a good ballistic calculator will get me started. TKS much in advance. [/QUOTE]
