Never owned one, and use mostly Leupold scopes. The otherday I was shopping for a new scope to put on a .223 Lo-Wall (really neat little rifle). I figure that the rifle is good for about 250 yards accurately, so I just don't need a 20X scope. I looked at a couple Leupolds and the guy asked me to look thru a 16X Nikon that had the bullet drop rectile in it. I kinda liked it, but then looked thru a 12X, and liked it even better. Then I tried the 8X version and liked it even more (seemed clearer and brighter). Now like I said I've never owned a Nikon rifle scope, and have never used the bullet drop rectile feature. Anybody on here use this scope and the feature? I rarely shoot .223's over 350 yards anyway (coyotes), and I may just change over my 700 Remington if the feature works well.
