I have one here and have tried it on several different rifles.

It works very well, but I prefer the standard Nikoplex reticle.

I've seen the TV ads, so my question is: how many MOAs are to circles?

I like the BDC reticle and used it a little on a .308 out to 300 yards.

Keep in mind that the BDC is a generic reticle, so you'll have to shoot your particular rifle and load in. Easily done by "splitting the circles"

Here's at 300 yards, holding 3rd circle on "varmint's" center mass.



Split the 2nd and 3rd circle and came up with this.


Pretty neat reticle overall.
