I don't know about the glare reducer thingie, but I use the Nikon BDC 4.5-14x40 on my Model 10 in 223. I had mine dipped in camo though. I really like the scope, a lot.

Good enough for me...it's coming via opticsplanet next week. Thanks! The stock simmons scope on the Predator isn't good enough for the distances i wanna shoot.EDIT: Opticsplanet sux! AFTER taking my order and promising immediate delivery they email me and tell the rings are on backorder. Arrggg!!! I hate it when online vendors mislead buyers.

the problem with optic planet is they don't post on the site if it's back ordered until you place an order. I wrote to them and told them that sucks they never wrote back LOL.I was thinking on ordering a bdc but am not sure if I would like the small circles I am use to the cross.

I have 2 nikons with the bdc reticle and like them both very much. I now have purchased a nikon with a mil dot reticle, I've only shot it a few times and really like the mil dot. The problem with mil dot is they only offer it in the higher power scopes.

I have called everyone in So. Cal. and nobody has this scope in stock Double arrgg!

Bruce, cabelas has the pro staff in stock. It's pretty much the same scope but not camoflage.

I wanna compare a variety of scopes (including this one) someplace but that doesn't seem possible. Ahhh life in Kalifornistan.EDIT: Viewing it before buying was a PITA so i took it from an ebayer (new) for under $300. w/ shipping! Yay!
