[QUOTE="SSG Graybush, post: 2227282, member: 115190"] Imo bdc reticles suck! Period! With a mil or moa reticle you can easily figure out the exact holdovers to as far as you can shoot, or 300 yards. I am not a fan of 2nd focal plane scopes but the Vortex Razor HD LHT 3x15x42 is a very nice hunting scope at about $999. Super clear glass, weighs only 19 oz's, covered windage turret, parralax adjustable, with a illuminated center dot for low light or dark woods. With that scope and a free ballistic app or load info along with some environmental info myself or somebody on here could give you exact hold holdovers and windage data. Bdc reticles are generic and not are rarely dead nuts on. And never allow for wind holdoffs, but to 300 yards wind is pretty much a non factor. Side note. My Razor HD 5x20x50 broke after 8.5 years of hard use. Sent it in, and got it back fixed in 2.5 weeks for free and Vortex sent me a shipping label. Thats some good customer service and a feather in Vortex's cap. And the 40% off msrp for mil/vet/LE/FR is not bad either. [/QUOTE]
