I saw on their web site that they now have a BDC reticle offering on most of their scopes.  Has anyone seen them?  What are your thoughts?

Not in stores yet.  Was just talking to one of the Gander Mountain guys up here in MN three days ago about this new reticle as I'm interested in it on the Buckmaster 6-18x40.  Says we should be seeing them enter their stores in about a month.  What a horrible wait, but I'll stay strong... 

 

I am very excited for this scope to come out with that reticle - should be an excellent value.

 

And ya know what?  I hate to say it, but their web site really needs some definite updating with a better layout.  There isn't even squat on their web site concerning this new reticle.  Thank goodness Gander had decent new 2006 brochures for Nikon's entire line.  Now that has some good info.  Here's a blurb hot off the flatbed:

Don't get me wrong, I plan to buy a 6-18 X 40 Buckmaster myself. But, do you think your going to get a bullet trajectory to match theses little "O"?  Nikon is placing them in an average summary between magnums and best I can tell .308 and .30-06. You will need to log your yardage for each circle and guess in between.
