I’m a Nikon bdc guy and I use the spot on app to enter my velocity, bc, bullet weight and the app does the calculations and gives me the yardages of the dots on the reticle. Extremely accurate out to 300yds in my experience. How does the vortex bdc do this for all straight wall cartridges that vary in the above mentioned data? And don’t tell me “magic” we are not in Dallas. Thx, Bubba

There are ballistic aps that will compute the drops based on your particular load. Anything else is an educated guess.

I understand that. But how can vortex say this scope will have the same down range drops using any straight wall cartridge. They are saying the 200yd line on the reticle is the same for the 350l, 450bm,& 45/70g. I’m not buying that...
