I hope I like it because I went ahead and orderd a 6.5x16.5x44 Monarch with the BDC reticle. Got a good price through SWFA, $302. Original price was 4 something.
Good luck on getting it. I ordered the exact scope from them, and never recieved it in 2 months. I canceled the order and ordered from Nachez. Got it in 3 days.
As far as the BDC. I am not sure I like mine. The way you got to use it is adjust the power to match the distance. In other words, you might put it to 12 power for 500 yards but 13.5 power for 400 yards for instance. I would rather have mildot.
