3. Instructions
(1) Focusing
1 Look through the eyepiece with your eye positioned about 4 in. (10 cm) away from the eyepiece to see each reticle (Fig. 3).
Be sure your eye is positioned with proper alignment and with proper eye relief, otherwise the view will “black out.”
2 Point the objective end of the scope at the sky (do NOT point it at the sun) or at a plain unpatterned wall.
3 Turn the eyepiece adjustment counter-clockwise and then turn it clockwise until the reticle appears sharp.
Notice: Reticle images shown in this manual are representation only. Actual images may vary.

(2) Magnication
• Nikon riescopes have variable magnication. For details, see “2. Specications”.
To change powers, rotate the power selector ring until the desired magnication appears adjacent to the power index.
(3) Adjustment of the riescope
Sighting through the riescope, align the rie with your aiming point on the target and shoot a trial round. If the bullet does not hit the aiming point, adjust the elevation and windage adjustment turrets as follows:
• If the bullet hits under the aiming point, turn the elevation adjustment turret (counter-clockwise) in the direction of the arrow marked “U” for up. If the bullet hits high, turn the elevation adjustment turret (clock-
wise) in the direction of the arrow marked “D” for down.
• If the bullet hits to the right of the aiming point, turn the windage adjustment turret (clockwise) in the direction of the arrow marked “L” for left. If the bullet hits to the left of the aiming point, turn the windage
adjustment turret (counter-clockwise) in the direction of the arrow marked “R” for right.
• After the reticle has been adjusted to the point of impact, replace the turret cap for both the elevation and windage adjustment turrets.
Note:
• The windage and elevation scales of PROSTAFF P3 riescopes are calibrated in divisions of 1/4 minute of angle (MOA) with a click at intervals of 1/4 minute of angle (1 division).
• When adjusting the reticle to the point of aim, remember that 1 minute of angle equals approximately 1 in. (2.54 cm) at 100 yd. (91.44 m).
Therefore, if the impact point is 2 in. (5.08 cm) low and 1 in. (2.54 cm) right at 100 yd. (91.44 m) parallax setting, you should adjust 2 minutes of angle up and 1 minute of angle left.
In the case of 50 yd. (45.72 m) parallax setting, the adjusting value is 2×. In the case of 75 yd. (68.58 m) parallax setting, the adjusting value is 1.5×.

(4) Zero resetting of adjustment turret
The elevation adjustment and windage adjustment turrets have a retracting system. After the reticle has been adjusted to match the point of impact, pull up the elevation adjustment or windage adjustment turret
to disengage. The turret can now be turned freely. Align the zero number to the index line to set the zero setting, and then release the turret. The turret automatically retracts to the original position.

Utilizing the BDC reticle
Thank you for choosing the Nikon BDC reticle riescope. The BDC reticle is designed to compensate for the trajectory of your rearm. Regardless of the particular style of BDC reticle you have, the position of the circles are
based upon an average trajectory for some of the more popular projectiles and cartridges on the market based upon the intended use of the scope itself.
Please note that the reticle is based upon ballistic information and may or may not meet the same results for you as there are many variables that come into play such as:
• Actual Velocity (Ammunition manufactures’ information in regards to muzzle velocity may or may not match the velocity your rearm produces. The best way to determine the actual muzzle velocity for your rearm
is to use a chronograph).
• Temperature
• Humidity
• Altitude
• Barometric Pressure
• Condition and inherent accuracy of the rearm
• The mounting system and how true it positions the scope to the centerline of the bore

BDC 200 reticle
The BDC 200 reticle was designed for use with modern, high velocity sabot style slugs when used in fully ried slug guns. We recommend using slugs that have an aero-dynamic polymer tip design as these have a higher
ballistic co-ecient and provide atter trajectory over longer ranges.
The BDC 200 reticle is designed to be zeroed at 50 yards with a polymer tipped slug with an approximate muzzle velocity of 1900 fps. The reticle would then provide bullet drop compensation for 100, 150, 175 and 200
yards using the respective ballistic circles as shown on the next page.

Please note that your rearm may or may not match the information listed for bullet drop based upon the variables listed in this section.
Note:
We highly recommend that you try various brands of ammunition to see what round is the most accurate in your respective slug gun.
What if you prefer to shoot a full bore diameter Foster type slug, or prefer to zero your rearm at 100 yards? NO PROBLEM, just go to the
Nikon Spot On website (nikonsportoptics.com/Spoton) and you can match your exact cartridge to the reticle. In fact, we highly recommend
that you check out the Spot On website as it will provide exact yardages that each circle represents, providing unparalleled ballistic data
for long range shooting.

BDC 300 reticle
The BDC 300 reticle was designed to match the trajectory of today’s modern inline muzzleloaders. With advancements in projectiles and black powder, the modern inline is capable of accuracy as well as knock down
power out to, and beyond 300 yards.
The BDC 300 reticle is designed to be zeroed at 100 yards using a 250 grain aero-dynamic, polymer tipped bullet along with a 150 grain powder charge. The reticle would then provide bullet drop compensation for 150,
200, 250 and 300 yards using the respective ballistic circles as shown on the next page.
Please note that your rearm may or may not match the information listed for bullet drop based upon the variables listed in this section.

BDC Predator reticle
The BDC Predator reticle was designed specically for hunting coyote, fox and other predator, especially when calling those animals. The open circle design allows you to bracket the animal for fast target acquisition as
predators are constantly on the move.
The reticle is designed around 2 of the most popular varmint cartridges, the .223 Remington and the .22-250 Remington using 55 grain polymer tipped bullets.
Note:
When initially zeroing the BDC Predator reticle we highly recommend using a round or circular bulls-eye type target versus a diamond style. Your eye will naturally center the circle type target making it easier to zero the
rearm.
When using the .223 Remington, we recommend that you zero the rearm at 100 yards, using the center circle.
The reticle would then provide bullet drop compensation for 200 (bottom of the center circle), 300 yards (center of second circle) and 400 yards (center of third circle) using the respective ballistic circles as shown on the
next page.

When using the .22-250 Remington, we recommend that you zero the rearm at 200 yards, using the center circle.
The reticle would then provide bullet drop compensation for 300 (bottom of the center circle), 350 yards (center of second circle) and 450
yards (center of third circle) using the respective ballistic circles as shown right.
Please note that your rearm may or may not match the information listed for bullet drop based upon the variables listed in this section.
What if your choice of predator round is the .204 Ruger or the .220 Swift? NO PROBLEM, just go to the Nikon Spot On website (nikonspor-

The Spot On website has been designed to provide accurate information that matches the ballistics of whatever projectile you are shooting directly to the reticle.
Please note that you should verify that your set up matches the information provided in this manual or the Spot On program before venturing into the eld. The only way to truly verify the information is by actual shooting.
Again, the variables listed above may or may not aect the results.
Note: It is imperative that the reticle be level in relation to the rearm. If the reticle is canted, even just a few degrees, it can cause the shot to drift o the centerline of the point of aim. There are many commercial leveling
devices on the market, but the one that we nd to be the most accurate in leveling the reticle is a plum bob. Use a bubble level to make sure the rearm is level, then look through scope at an appropriately placed plumb
bob and align the reticle accordingly.
Please also note that all Nikon BDC reticles were originally designed to be used on the highest magnication. Since changing the magnication changes the position of the circles in relation to the target, the distances
listed along with each of the illustrations are at the highest magnication. The center crosshair does not change with magnication as it is placed in the optical center of the scope.
The benet of the Spot On program is that it calculates the distance that each circle represents at every magnication.
If you have further questions regarding the Spot On Technology please visit the website: http://spoton.nikonsportoptics.com/spoton/questions.html
Note:
Spot On is available only in the US and Canada.
