I've used one or two scopes with BDC reticles (not mil-dot). They were accurate enough to hit NRA high-power silhouette steel out to 500m, but I didn't get a chance to shoot for groups.
I'm curious to know if these reticles are worthwhile for recreational mid-to-long-range shooting or if they're mostly gimmicks. Those who shoot around 500-800m or so, do you use these or do you just use a more traditional reticle with target-style turrets on your scopes?
I know people can do really well with Mildot scopes, but I've never tried one of those. Just curious about the opinions of people who know.
