Yep, that's partly why I never recommend the BDC reticle since, like mrads (the dots on a Mil Dot scope), they magnify/shrink with power increase/decrease. but going from 3 to 9 power adjustments it is still only normal for a 3moa shift of POI at 100 yards. 3moa at 100 is fairly insignificant in the scheme of things with medium to large sized game but predator hunting makes that a pretty big deal to overcome. Yote vitals aren't that big of a target to begin with But with his being a Nikoplex reticle and having around 10 MOA shifts from 3-9 is some pretty drastic shifting. Glad Nikon is repairing it for him and not continuing to try to blow smoke up his rear with some stupid APP.
