Question: On the Amazon site, I did a search for the Nikon M308 BDC version.. How can I ensure I get the BDC version instead of the other reticle?
Document: First off, I'm very pleased with this scope - HOWEVER: the original amazon item description was for the Nikoplex reticle "Nikon M-308 Riflescope 4-16x42 SF NIKOPLEX". But what I got was the BDC reticle! the BDC reticle is a little silly as the 50 yard holdover increments are only really applicable if you're at 16x magnification (as this is a second focal plane scope).
The scope does what it is supposed to do. After a short learning curve, and proper sighting in, it works. BUT, I ordered the BDC model and received the Nikoplex reticle instead which is two different systems of sighting. Kept it after talking to the shipper and realizing that my ordered model was not in stock nor due anytime soon. So, what I got works but it isn't what I ordered. Would have been 5 stars if I could have test driven the headlined part.
Just got this in yesterday, but I haven't installed it yet. But just by looking at it, I can tell it's made great and that I know it will do good on my Tikka T3 Lite!!!!! But I had to return it because I ordered the wrong scope. I wanted the same scope, but with the BDC reticle. What a butt head!! but if I had another rifle I would have kept it.
I bought this scope from James J. Scott, LLC. here on Amazon. The scope I received already had the tape opened and had been re taped. Upon mounting this to my Remington 700 I went to sight it in and noticed that the reticle would not move at all. I had to send the item back. The return ended up costing me 22 dollars out of pocket for a defective device.
I bought the Nikon M-308 on a gun dealers recommendation while purchasing an Armalite AR 10 rifle and had never mounted a scope in the past. Unfortunately, I was unable to get the windage adjustment needed to sight the scope in at 25 yds (much less, 100yds). Nikon's only recommendation was to try and attach the mount again.
Waited almost 10 months for this scope after it was  shown at the Shot Show last year. I am a Nikon fan and have their binoculars and other Nikon hunting scopes. Paired it up with a Rock River .308 and  although the eye relief is fine,  to get a full field of view at full magnification you have to be right at the one magical spot or you get the black tunnel effect ( 1/4" forward is no good,  nor is 1/4" back).
The moving of your head back and forth to get a full view is annoying and ruins the functionality of the scope. At the end of the day and 300 rounds later I wanted to  rip it off and throw it in the garbage. the guy I was shooting with who is a retired Army captain and an excellent shooter tried to  use it and it drove him crazy too. What a shame!!!!!!! !
A match made in heaven. Put this on my FNAR 20&#34; fluted and wow, 600 yards all day long. Farther out I bet with ease when I get to a longer range. With the 5 round mag, it is a deer slayer. For states that don't allow the pistol grip (gasp) put the browning hunters stock on the FNAR and with this scope, no game stands a chance.
At that point I was then able to sight it in at 100 yds with no problems. I was hopeful that Nikon would reimburse a portion of the additional $155 cost but no such luck. IE: so that is why I'm writing this review to warn other customers of what to expect. The scope is nice------I don't know how well it will perform beyond 100 yds, though.
It may just be my own eyes have a larger dilation than most in the daylight, I had to adjust my cheek rest to see full range. I already had the scope mounted as far to the rear as the particular mounts I have would allow. This isn't a negative to the particular scope or Nikon, they were clear about the objective and the magnification and exit pupil sizes. I just underestimated how much this would affect me.
Answer: yes
