From Nikon Sport Optics

-- Nikon, the official optics of Team Realtree, now offers the extremely popular 3-9X40 SlugHunter BDC 200 riflescope in the new Realtree APG HD (All-Purpose Green) pattern - lightening up the look of the optic with the lighter and more neutral-toned pattern.

The Nikon SlugHunter offers hunters a means to take advantage of their shotgun's shooting characteristics. Designed around Nikon's patented BDC (Bullet Drop Compensating) reticle system this new scope offers accuracy potential never before thought possible from a slug gun.

Engineered specifically for rifled slug guns, the Nikon BDC 200 is a trajectory compensating reticle that provides fast, simple aiming points for various shot distances. Calibrated to be sighted-in on the crosshair at 50 yards, the BDC 200 has two ballistic circles that represent 100-yard and 150-yard aiming points. For exceptionally accurate gun and load combinations, the lower reticle post becomes a 200-yard aiming point as well.

A full five inches of eye relief means a safe and comfortable shot with even the hardest hitting magnum loads. Nikon multicoated optics produce crisp, clear images, while 92 percent light transmission keeps the hunter in the field when the game is moving. The innovative SlugHunter scope features 1/4-MOA click adjustments, 100-yard parallax setting and Nikon's rugged waterproof, fogproof and shock proof performance.

The SlugHunter 3-9X40 APG with BDC measures a compact 11.3 inches in length, and weighs 13.7 ounces. Suggested retail price is $259.95.
