If the OP is a Hunter, then he would only (normally) be shooting out to about 400. With a 308 he doesn't need BDC or CDS. But, if he was shooting out to 1000, his optics needs are way different, and the scope will likely need turrets.

That said, I really have become fond of the Leupold Varmint Hunter reticle, being a hunter with shots that won't exceed 500 yards. And to say it again, I really like that TMR reticle that Leupold offers. I had it put in my 6.5-20x50 LR.

CDS is just a dial version of BDC, but better. Not at all a bad choice for a Hunter.

The OP can get a great Leupold scope for less than $1k, and it will be all a hunter needs.
