   Introducing the newest addition to the SWFA SS Ultralight line, the 2.5-10x32 BDC. The SS Ultralight line boasts the same unmatched durability and dependability you have come to expect from the 
SS line of products. Low-profile, ¼ MOA, capped turrets offer 15 MOA of adjustment per revolution and a total adjustment range of 70 MOA for both elevation and windage. Backed by the unbeatable 
SS 4-LIFE Transferable Warranty, the SWFA SS 2.5-10x32 Ultralight Riflescope is breaking the mold and proving that sometimes less is more. 

The BDC reticle features 4 main hold points for most .223 / 5.56 ammo, the primary crosshair for 50 and 200 yards followed by the 300, 400, & 500 yard holdovers. The hashmark just above the 
main crosshair gives you a 100 yard hold and there are hashmarks between the main holds for 250, 350, & 450 yards also. The top of the bottom thick post on the main crosshair is conveniently 
positioned for a 550 yard hold and the reticle provides quick aiming points for 5 and 10 mph winds out to 500 yards as well. 

The SS Ultralight MSR-556 BDC
reticle is calibrated for a 16” barrel using the ballistic data generated from
a 55 grain (gr) bullet with a muzzle velocity of 3,100 feet per second
(fps).  The fps data of 3,100 was achieved by averaging the fps of all
available 55 gr ammunition (excluding sub-sonic).
While the MSR-556 BDC reticle
was designed and calibrated for 55 gr 5.56 at 3,100 fps it works well with many
other bullet weights and similar calibers.  The charts below demonstrates
the ability to use  62 gr 5.56 and still hold dead-on out to 550 yards
with only a 0.6 MOA difference in POI, or you can simply sight your M855 62 gr 5.56 in
at 225 yards instead of 200 yards and make it align significantly better at
distance. In this scenario the M855 will be sighted in 0.5 MOA (~1 inch) high
at 200 yards.

The result of calibrating the
reticle using this exact data is the ability to use almost any .223/5.56
ammunition you can buy and accurately shoot from 50 yards to 550 yards with no
adjustments.

As you can see in the chart below, the difference in 5 mph & 10 mph wind holds between the 55 gr and 62 gr is almost non existent. 

The chart below is in MOA. 

The SWFA SS BDC 2.5-10x32's sleek, 1" main tube and 32mm objective paired with a simple yet extremely useful BDC reticle give it a streamlined profile with a one-two punch that is perfect for your next AR build.
