Meopta now offers the MeoStar R2 1-6x24 RD and MeoStar R1r 3-12x56 RD with two new BDC reticles—the BDC-2 or BDC-3. Both reticles feature an illuminated red dot, and are located in the second focal plane, so riflescopes with either will need to be on a specific power setting for the user’s particular load to ensure accurate holdover. You can determine this by using the Ballistic Calculator found on Meopta’s website.

Left: The BDC-2 reticle provides holdover out to 800 yards. Right: The BDC-3 reticle provides holdover options out to 500 yards and has hold points for wind correction equating to 10 mph along the horizontal axis of the major yardage lines.
