Here is my .02 fwiw. I think that std duplex type reticle is better. To me, the clutter in that type reticle is more of a distraction than a help. I would bet that most folks could do 95% of their hunting range shooting with a std duplex just fine using the crosshair and the top of the bottom post.
Personally if I was going to get a scope to actually do alot of long range shooting, I'd get a Leupold with the CDS dial, vs a BDC type reticle.
