With the Nikon set on 5X, the bottom aiming point on the 4-circle BDC reticle is for the 600-yard gong, which would make for excellent windage practice.
The central cross hair then hits 3" high at 100 and dead-on at 208 yards, for point and shoot a deer-sized critter to 244 yards.
1-1/3" high at 50 yards, 3" high at 100 yards, and maximum ordinate is just 3.2" high at 122 yards.
That could be useful in the woods and pastures even with a 2.5X Leupold.
That point-and-shoot range would be a good limit for this fun little bullet for pasture shooting.
The Nikon BDC has a 300-yard aiming point also, on 5X and 7X settings, which surely would be my limit for meat.
At 300 yards the bullet's velocity is 1426 fps, KE = 1128 ft-lbs, and 10 mph crosswind drift is nearly 2 feet.
