My understanding is that each of the BDCs is set up for a 100y zero on the center dot with some specific military ammo, barrel length, height above bore and for zero altitude. I believe if you contact trijicon, you can find out for any given model what those settings are, and I think even get raw reticle data in mills and/or MOA.
Of course all this may not match your caliber, cartridge, barrel length, sight height, and altitude. What I did for mine is to run my config in a ballistic calculator and adjust the variable I had control of (zero height at 100y) until the rest matched up as well as possible. In general, unless the cartridge the ACOG is made for and the cartridge you're shooting are very different, this will work. In my case it was a .308 ACOG made for M80 ball and I was shooting 6.8 SPC. I was able to get it to match well out to 600 or so.
