Nikon BDC Reticle Manual De Instrucciones página 3

Your riflescope features Nikon's new BDC reticle (Metric). BDC stands for Bullet Drop Compensation-a fancy term for hold-over. If a longer shot presents itself,
the BDC will provide confident hold-off capabilities if the shooter has done his homework.
This simple, effective reticle design can be custom tailored for the trajectory of your ammunition. The "ballistic" circles on the lower vertical crosshair enable you
to accurately compensate for bullet drop out to at least 457.2 m (500 yds) with most calibers. Nikon has designed this BDC reticle to blend simplicity with
accuracy-a difficult challenge considering the huge number of variables involved in placing a bullet drop compensating scope on a rifle. These would include:
The mounting system and how true it positions the scope to the center-line of the bore
●
The make, model and caliber of rifle involved
●
The rifle's condition and inherent accuracy
●
The ballistics performance of the ammunition-accuracy, velocity, uniformity and bullet characteristics such as ballistics co-efficients.
●
A final variable is you - the shooter!
